REFLECTION ON THE RECENT STRIKES OF HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS'S TEACHERS.
From
March to late June 2023, the teachers of higher education institutions observed
continual strikes that weren’t without consequences on the national curricula. Despite
the legitimacy of their claims, it did not let students indifferent.
The
claims arose from two sides: teachers’ and students. First, the teachers had
for decades their claims in the drawers of the government. Each time they stand
for their achievement, the government resolves partially the issue. Some points are
always solved out of many others. Therefore, a disagreement arose within the union
members which resulted in breaking the union into two branches. In consequence,
the government chose the part that favoured it. That could not solve the issue
because teachers were faithful to the side which bore their aspirations. As for
the students, they could see their future at stake if the strike lasted for
long. So, despite its late reaction, the students’ union approached the both
side in order to have a middle ground, but for no end. It made waves of
protestation walks which pushed the government to make promises that resulted in
the suspension of the strike.
Even
if the classes have reopened, the consequences of the strike and the
uncertainty about its resume remain. First, the delay in the schedule is
remarkable since those who should participate the contest of this year are to
wait so that we take the second semester to an end. Then, students being out of
the classes have forgotten many things even if I admit its abnormality. At
last, academic year is totally disturbed.
In
conclusion, regarding the harmful consequences of the teachers’ strikes on the
national curricula, the government should anticipate them and take them
seriously. The brains of the country should be valued on behalf of the
advancement of the country.
