The strike week starts on 23 January and ends on 31 January with Solidarity Day.

Following the March for Education, the Democratic Trade Union of Teachers (Pedagógusok Demokratikus Szakszervezete, PDSZ) is preparing to strike again. They wrote the following about the strike week and the Solidarity Day:

The announcement

“WE CONTINUE the walkout. The rolling strike notice remains in force. We are announcing seven days of national strike action from the Monday after the central secondary school admissions (21 January), 23 January. (Respecting the legitimate expectation of parents that children should not be disadvantaged in their preparation.) Each institution and community can contribute to this with its own solutions. The strike on 23 January must be announced by 16 January at 4 PM at the latest. This action will end with the announcement of a SOLIDARITY DAY on 31 January, the anniversary of the warning strike a year ago.”

There, several of them addressed the thousands of people who had gathered.

The march started on Monday morning from the Herman Ottó High School in Miskolc and covered 30 kilometres a day, including several members of the Teachers’ Trade Union (PSZ) and the Democratic Trade Union of Teachers (PDSZ), szmo.hu reports.

    Massive citizens support.
    Broken promises by Victor Orban & his Government, who have just totally NEGLECTED Education – funding of, educators wages and “other” major needs, for the past near on 13 years.
    Orban “tried” it on, but has and will continue to be SHAMED – rightfully.
    Orban knows what is being ASKED of him – which is HIS direct massive problem to CLEAN up. – as it is HE, from his DESK, handing down the orders, that has placed EDUCATION in Hungary into its present SHAMBOLIC and antiquated position.
    Education – opens windows of opportunities, and educators, students and there families, widespread CITIZENS support – GROWING in SOLIDARITY – the SHAME on Victor Orban will be deepened to being a personal humiliation on him -another addition to his already “questionable” characteristics.
