Teachers in the Kurdistan Region have rejected the Education Ministry’s announcement to begin the 2025–2026 school year on September 21, a member of the protesting teachers’ committee told Shafaq News.
Delshad Mirani said the boycott will cover all educational levels. He added that teachers are preparing to resume protests and sit-ins, though no start date has been set.
Educators in the Region have been staging ongoing protests for several months, demanding improved employment conditions and the payment of overdue salaries.
