Education Ministry Eager for High Security Standards at Schools
The Ministry of Education of Georgia aims to ensure high security standards in public schools, the Deputy Minister of Education Temur Murghulia stated on Tuesday.
Murghulia will present amendments to the “Law on General Education” to Parliamentary Human Rights Committee in the coming days.
The main goal of the reform is to refine the Resource Officer’s activities at public schools.
“The amendments to the law will ensure better protection of children’s rights and improve the control. The right of searching will be restricted, but at the same time the resource officer will be given the right of surface/visual examination.
Besides, resource officers will undergo special training and will have the opportunity to properly and adequately address children’s needs. Schools will be equipped with CCTV cameras, which will be controlled by resource officers. This will give them an opportunity to receive information on the school process,” stated Murgulia.
The Ministry of Education and Science together with the Ministry of Internal Affairs has elaborated the amendments to “Law on General Education”.
