Parents across the country gathered today (Monday) earlier than usual for their children from educational institutions following the teachers' union's protest over the salaries of educators.
Starting at 13:00, the studies were stopped, including in the special education institutions, and at 18:00, the Histadrut members are expected to hold a demonstration in the Tel Aviv Museum plaza under the title "Teachers, teachers and principals say enough of a poor salary."
Yael Weiss, a mother of a four-and-a-half-year-old boy, said she supports the teachers' strike and the struggle to raise their salaries.
"This is very hard work and they are not rewarded enough," she said.
"We need to improve the conditions in order to bring in quality people and not run away to other areas like high-tech. In the end, these are our children."

Ari, a grandfather who was forced to help and pick up his grandson from kindergarten following the strike said he explained to his grandson, Cole, about the demonstration and what it meant.
"I came to pick him up until his mom finishes the job," he said.
"On Mondays I usually have to pick up the children an hour later and because of the change I had to change the schedule.
We will go to the garden and get fit. "Cole, adding to the grandfather's remarks, adding that" they said in kindergarten that there are no gardeners - I already know that. "
Negotiations on the wage agreement between the Teachers' Union, the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Finance began in January The main controversy is over the level of salaries for beginning teachers and the increase in salaries for veteran teachers: the Ministry of Finance aims to increase the salaries of beginning teachers, and ask that their salaries be NIS 8,200, while the teachers' union and the Ministry of Education demand an increase for all teachers and ten thousand shekels for beginning teachers. The calls, no actual offer was placed on the table.

The chairman of the National Parents' Leadership, Merom Schiff, said later in the protest that the teaching profession should be a coveted profession and not an abrasive profession. So low.
However, it is important that the education system changes the method of reward based on seniority, to reward according to excellence. "
