Speaking to Tunisie Numérique,Deputy Secretary-General of the General Federation of Secondary Education Fakhri Smiti stressed today that the Tunisian state does not care about children with learning disabilities or special needs.
In fact, there is a developing sense that the state is no longer concentrating on education in general. The education budget dropped from a third of the state budget to a budget that was relatively insufficient to pay the wages of public officials under the supervision of the Ministry of Education.
There is a whole world between the Utopia of legislative texts and the harsh reality, particularly when it comes to special needs students, he added.
He called for concrete solutions to be found far from classic approaches directed only at camouflaging the problem.
