Mexico: Oaxaca Teachers on Strike Return to Classrooms

Categories: Latin America, Mexico, Education, Protest

Aguachile [1] reports that “After almost two weeks of demonstrations, the “dissident” Sección 22 of the SNTE teachers union […] returned to the class rooms today, Monday. In one of Mexico's absolute poorest states, with educational attainment at rock bottom, the teachers left the 1.4 million or so students without a teacher for almost two weeks – all the time collecting their salary.”
