Cancer-stricken Teacher Transferred to Closer School

A positive development has occurred for the cancer-stricken teacher who was initially assigned to a school 70 kilometers away from her home while undergoing chemotherapy. She has been transferred to a school in the Nicosia district, halving the distance.

The case, which was publicized by Alphanews.Live, sparked reactions and the intervention of MEP Loukas Fourlas.

The teacher expressed her satisfaction to Alphanews.Live, emphasizing that the distance has been reduced by half.

Despite the positive development, the problem remains for contract teachers with serious health issues, as there is no legislation to cover them.

The issue is expected to be discussed in the Parliamentary Education Committee, with MPs Pavlos Mylonas and Chrysanthos Savvidis proposing an amendment to the legislation to protect contract teachers with health problems.
