The Ministry of Education is planning to attract Estonian-speaking teachers to jobs in Ida-Viru County by offering higher salaries or bonuses, Minister of Education Tõnis Lukas (Isamaa) said on Friday.
Fourteen schools in Tallinn have started to teach Ukrainian refugee children. So far, 3,000 children have arrived and the Ministry of Education is mulling opening a partial-Ukrainian language school.
Almost half of Estonian schools have moved to full or partial distance learning due to the rapidly spreading Omicron coronavirus strain which has pushed news cases to a record high.
