Parents angry over outline: "Our children will not participate in this game"
The outline for the opening of the Ministry of Education's school year includes tests in schools.
However, many parents do not agree that their children should be examined in educational institutions: "This school is not a health insurance fund, there is a fear that they will infect Cain with children," said one of the fathers, and another mother added: "A case of blatantly illegal ordinance."

Many parents of students in the education system are angry today (Monday) at the outline for opening the school year of the Ministry of Education, which includes conducting tests in schools.
According to them, the tests should not be performed in the educational institutions, and should be performed independently.
According to the head of the Public Health Services Dr. Sharon Elroy Pryce, a parent must be signed authorization to perform the tests and can decide whether his child be tested or not. "If he decides not to, it will lead to many unnecessary isolations," she said.
Tali, a mother of three from Haifa, Expressed strong opposition to the outline, which includes many tests for a student whose child from his class will be found positive, and told Walla! That “my children will not go to school if tests are conducted there.
"My children are healthy and they will not be tested all the time, they will not participate in this game."

"It is clear to me that the test itself is not complicated and can be done really easily, but this test has other implications that have not really been thought through to the end. It is a trampling of civil rights to an inconceivable extent," Tali added. "No one should enter the bowels of a healthy person, enter his medical file."
"We take an entire population of students and shatter their right to privacy and the right to their bodies, and take advantage of the fact that people think they no longer have a choice," Tali said. "People think some law has come down from above and must be enforced. So I actually mention cases where teaching is not allowed, and the 'black flag test' and what it says about a blatantly illegal ordinance. That's the case."
"Personally I am against these tests, this school is not a HMO," he told Walla!
The chairman of the Haifa local parents' committee, Ofer Green, 53, a father of three daughters, one of whom is still a schoolgirl who is in the eighth grade.
There will be some kid who is afraid to be tested and they will start pressing him for what, and will stick some letter Cain on him as someone who might catch others.
"Fear of social pressure."

"Some people want the tests, but of course we should also respect those who do not want to. We are an open company and should not be run in this way," Green said.
"Anyway child not be tested without parental consent, then a parent wants their children to be tested to help himself, and take them to the clinic. We do not want to do something overwhelmingly in schools designed to teach and educate. Tests and vaccines are designed to HMOs and other medical institutions,"
Green stressed that His remarks are aimed at student testing only.
"The staff is something else of course," he said.
"The decision-makers sit and make angular decisions about tests within schools. We as a parents' committee will meet in the coming days and formulate a position. I feel that most committee members oppose these tests, and not only committee members, but also parents. I get a lot of requests from parents not to allow it. ".

A middle school teacher and educator in Hadera who asked to remain anonymous told Walla!
"In my opinion, it is a big mistake to perform tests and vaccinations within the school, because it will completely divert the concentration in studies. Students will concentrate on tests and vaccinations and not in studies. "The school is designed to teach and enrich students' knowledge, and not to serve as a field hospital."
On the other hand, there are parents who do not object to the outline of the tests.
One of them, Moshe ben Hamo from Tiberias, told Walla!
"This is a reasonable requirement and if it ensures continuity of studies, I agree. Of course, tests cannot be forced, but it is fair that one who is not tested can be required to stay at home."
His son-in-law, who and his 15-year-old daughter who study in the city have not been vaccinated at all, makes it clear that he is completely opposed to vaccines in schools.
