Parent organizations are organizing a protest in front of the Ministry of Health building to demand that in-person school attendance be resumed for all school children – from 1st to 12th grade.

In open letters addressed to parliament, the ministers of health and of education, the parents state that distance learning is demotivating the children and harming their health, and demand that the institutions ensure there is in-person school attendance for all pupils.

Milko Bozhankov from “United parents” stated for the BNR’s Horizont channel that distance learning is ineffective and discriminational in view of the financial capacity of parents to provide devices and Internet access for their children.
