Moroccan associate teachers are embarking on a national strike this Wednesday, saying they are “steadfast” against the Ministry’s “ignorance” of their demand.
The teachers are calling for the creation of new degrees of promotion, similar to the rest of the categories, and a statute of their own, in implementation of the agreement of April 19, 2011.
Their coordination has developed its proposal for this system, which they say the Ministry is ignoring.
The Coordination of Associate Teachers in Morocco is demanding the increase in compensation for teaching and supervising, the approval of compensation for research in line with the tasks assigned to the associate professors, the adoption of 12 regular hours in the weekly class, and the abolition of compulsory extra hours.
A statement by the Coordination Committee called for fairness and motivation for associate professors assigned to tasks other than teaching, and to consider the certificate of distinction as a certificate authorizing registration in the doctoral corps, indicating that the ministry had promised to find formulas that allow this.
The same source called for enabling teachers in general, especially those working in secondary education, to teach and train in the preparatory departments of higher schools, the departments for the preparation of the higher technical certificate, and the training centers (the corps of excellence preparation, the regional centers for education and training professions, the center for educational guidance and planning, and the training center for inspectors education…).
The coordination also called on the commanding ministry to expedite the implementation of a fair and motivating statute for associate teachers in accordance with the agreement of April 19, 2011, signed with the educational unions.
