Violent teachers may now be banned from working in the education system

In Uzbekistan, it is planned to appoint employees of the education system as responsible persons for the education and upbringing of the child. This was reported by Gazeta.uz.

If they repeatedly behave negatively towards the child within a year, they are included in a special register and are prohibited from entering work in organizations engaged in the child's activities.

A draft of amendments and additions to the Code of Administrative Responsibility and the Law "On the Status of Teachers" has been developed. This was announced by Laylo Fayzimurodova, Deputy Head of the Department of the National Agency for Social Protection, in an interview with a Gazeta.uz correspondent.

According to him, according to the amendment to Article 47 of the Code of Administrative Responsibility, not only parents, but also employees of educational and healthcare institutions, that is, teachers, educators, doctors, and nurses, are designated as responsible persons for the upbringing and education of minors.

"Because they work directly with minors, and children are sometimes under their care. "If employees of the education and healthcare sectors are held liable under Article 47 of the Code of Administrative Responsibility and continue negative behavior towards a child within a year, then, according to the proposed amendment to the Law "On the Status of Teachers," their activities in the institution will be suspended," Laylo Fayzimurodova said.

Also, this person is included in the register for causing harm to the child's health and is prohibited from entering work in organizations and institutions (kindergartens, schools, hospitals, etc.) engaged in the child's activities.

It is noted that the draft law passed the departmental agreement and was submitted to the Cabinet of Ministers by the National Agency for Social Protection.
