Zelenskyy: Financial support for teachers must continue to prevent loss of staff

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized the necessity of continuing financial support for teachers in Ukraine to prevent a loss of personnel in the education sector during a visit to a high school. He highlighted that the military, medical workers, and subsequently teachers, along with energy workers, are understandably prioritized during wartime.

Zelenskyy stated that the decision to increase support for the education sector has already been made and that the necessary funding is available. He noted that while making the decision is one thing, ensuring the funds' availability during wartime is equally crucial. The president also reported on agreements with international partners regarding funding, stressing that increasing support for educators cannot be halted, as discontinuing this support would lead to a loss of personnel in the educational system.

He reiterated that everything must happen on time, warning that failing to do so would result in a loss of staff.
