Recent cases of violence in kindergartens and nurseries reported by parents themselves have brought back fear and anxiety among the latter. They say that such phenomena often occur in kindergartens but they try to monitor the child's progress every day. They demand that controls be increased and measures be taken to expel abusive educators.
Experts claim that the infrastructure of kindergartens and the inefficient recruitment process of these employees are some of the factors that lead to violence. For Ndriçim Mehmeti, educators must have special preparation, especially for the education and upbringing of minors.
Meanwhile, every year dozens of young graduates graduate from universities, some of whom rush to the employment portal.
For Erion Muça, an employment expert, the problem of recruiting educators begins with the lack of a study of the market's need for educators, to distribute them in the right way, and he also sees the dependence of these institutions not on the Ministry of Education but on the municipalities as a problem.
A year ago, a 3-year-old girl who was raped by her teacher in a private kindergarten shocked public opinion. It took the family's complaint from the Trauma Hospital, about the broken limbs, for the responsible institutions to react.
The Ministry of Education closed the kindergarten and promised inspections in all public and private institutions.
But, after a year, we still do not have a report regarding the control exercised in preschool institutions, how many of them meet the standards and how many others have been closed.
When asked by A2 CNN, the press office of the Minister of Education says that the National Agency for Pre-University Education is responsible for these monitoring.
As long as the ministry decides to remain silent, as in the case of the Fan Noli school, parents will be insecure about their children in kindergartens and schools, and perhaps we will see them more often as protesters at the doors of the ministry. (A2 Televizion)
