Ljubljana/Velenje – A number of secondary school students boycotted remote learning on Tuesday to express support for a movement that seeks face-to-face teaching at secondary schools. Opinions about this among students are still divided, though, a representative of the relevant organisation said.
The initiative to boycott remote learning in secondary schools has been launched by the movement We Want School, which had wanted to meet representatives of the Education Ministry over this by 8 February.
The ministry scheduled the meeting for today, but the movement nevertheless proceeded with the planned boycott.
A few departments in the Ptuj secondary school opted for the boycott, head teacher Boštjan Šeruga told the STA. He assessed that the absence of students had been noticeable, estimating that a third of students joined the boycott.
