The All Kerala School Teachers’ Union (AKSTU) too has come forward to criticise the government decision to reduce summer vacations in a unilateral manner.
In a statement on Sunday, the AKSTU State secretariat demanded that any changes in the education sector be introduced only through discussions, not unilaterally.
Instead of decisions on school working days taken at a meeting of the Quality Improvement Programme monitoring committee that was chaired by Minister for General Education V. Sivankutty, those taken at official level were being imposed. This was unacceptable.
