What changes to the Education Law bring

N1 says it saw a draft under which a teacher who does not resume classes after a principal’s warning could lose a licence. The report says parent councils would be capped at eight members in primary schools and 15 in secondary schools; N1’s interviewees also criticise narrower scope for informal student groups. The ministry and representative unions declined to speak to N1.
