Jovina gimnazija pupils' parents from tomorrow outside the Education Ministry: they expect an answer on dismissing the director
(Roditelji đaka Jovine gimnazije od sutra ispred Ministarstva prosvete: Očekuju odgovor o smeni direktora)
021 writes that parents of Jovina gimnazija pupils said they will come to the Education Ministry in Belgrade from 10:00 on Monday, June 15, to wait for an answer on whether the procedure to dismiss school director Radivoje P. Stojkovic has been opened. They plan to stay outside the ministry until minister Dejan Vuk Stankovic receives them. The parents say that after submitting complete documentation they expect a clear answer on whether the dismissal procedure will begin and why the Law on the Foundations of the Education System is not being applied at Jovina gimnazija. 021 recalls that the parents were outside the ministry on Friday, June 12, but the promised meeting was not scheduled; the crisis has continued since the school leadership's public apology to Milos Vucevic, the closure of the gymnasium building over an unsafe dome, the relocation of pupils into three city schools, and several large protests demanding Stojkovic's resignation.

Jovina gimnazija pupils' parents again outside the Education Ministry on Monday, demanding the director's dismissal
(Roditelji đaka Jovine gimnazije u ponedeljak ponovo pred Ministarstvom prosvete, zahtevaju smenu direktora)
N1, citing FoNet, reports that parents of pupils at Novi Sad's "Jovan Jovanovic Zmaj" gymnasium said they will be outside the Education Ministry from 10:00 on June 15 to wait for an answer on whether the law has been applied and whether the procedure to dismiss Radivoje P. Stojkovic has been opened, which would allow the provincial secretary to appoint an acting director. According to their statement, falling teaching quality, the hiring of unqualified staff, retaliation against pupils, teachers and parents, the locking of the building and the relocation of pupils into three buildings have not been enough to remove the director. N1 also reports that the parents had already been outside the ministry on Friday because Stankovic had promised at an earlier meeting to talk again on June 12, but did not schedule the meeting.
