The Ministry of Education today (Tuesday) closed the possibility for high school principals to access a database where the names of teachers and students who have been vaccinated against the corona virus can be seen.

Access to the database was opened to all high school principals across the country a few days ago, and closed this morning until legal approval was received.

The story was first published in Haaretz.



Sources in the Ministry of Education explained to Walla!

Because principals were given access to information in order to reduce the number of students and teachers sent to isolation as part of the system of cutting off the contagion chains.

The information was exposed to principals only, since they are the ones who are in contact with the control center of the Ministry of Education regarding outbreaks of the virus in educational institutions.



About a month ago, Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit approved the transfer of information about the teaching staffs vaccinated from the Ministry of Health to the Ministry of Education.

However, the Ministry of Education has opened up access to information to all school principals, instead of allowing access only to principals whose institutions have identified an outbreak of the virus.

The number of educational institutions where outbreaks have occurred has increased significantly in recent weeks, so it is not clear how feasible the move would be to pass on information about the vaccinated on a point-by-point basis.

According to the latest update from the Ministry of Education, there are close to 100,000 isolators in the education system.



One of the principals of the schools in Tel Aviv told Walla!

Because the ability to view data, and thus know who got vaccinated and who did not, is welcome and helpful.

"It's a helpful move. It's important to know what's going on. We're not abusing the information anyway," he said.

The parents petitioned to oblige unvaccinated teaching staff to undergo a corona examination

Meanwhile, in view of the high incidence of the education system, dozens of parents for students from across the country yesterday filed a petition against the government, demanding that an employee of an educational institution is immune corona virus as a condition for entry will be required to present educational institution corona test negative every 72 hours.



Parents are represented on appeal - By Adv. Dr. Matan Gutman from the Law Firm Dr. Matan Gutman and Adv. Roi Gutman, Partner and Director of the Labor Law Department at the Eitan Law Firm Glory Fields. The parents claim that the entry arrangement of employees to educational institutions set forth today in the regulations Health declaration and wearing face masks, is unconstitutional and illegal, and there is a real danger to the health, safety and well-being of students in the education system.The



parents claim in the precedent petition, which may affect the entire field of employment in relation to the unvaccinated employee, Vaccination in the State of Israel. At the same time, they claim that the health and well-being of their children is not neglected, and their demand focuses on changing the existing policy of the government, and formulating a proportionate policy that will ensure, as far as possible, "green islands" in educational institutions. In an orderly manner

H. For teaching staff and the rest of the employees of the unvaccinated educational institutions, or for those who do not have this recovery certificate combined with a monitoring and supervision system.

The petitioners' position does not require any unique primary legislation for this purpose, since the government has the authority in the Public Health Ordinance and in the law special powers to deal with the corona virus to establish a proportionate arrangement with employees of educational institutions, which stipulates that every employee of an educational institution who does not hold a vaccinated certificate. To detect coronary heart disease.

The petition stated that in 2018, the Ministry of Health had already used the existing authority in the law following an outbreak of measles in Harish.



Petitioners further note that the current policy of the government has created a "chaotic situation on the ground. Various local authorities establish local and individual arrangements regarding the entry policy of unvaccinated teachers, without clear regulation, without supervision and without an orderly budget and inequality, and in many cases without authority and ability to monitor ".



According to the petitioners, this situation harms both students and teaching staff, as local decisions that are not backed by regulations and an orderly system of supervision and testing, create problematic and unequal situations that do not actually promote student safety in educational institutions, and look more like "lip service" to reassure parents. That they have "coverage in the field."
