Primary education: March 14 strike suspended (union)

The General Union of Primary Education announced on Tuesday the suspension of the strike scheduled for March 14 in all primary schools. This decision was taken after consultation with all the regional unions and after the Sfax Court of First Instance accepted the request for the release of the headmaster of the Sakiat Dair school, Nabil Ayadi, and the teacher Saida Elloumi. The latter were detained on charges of negligence following the February 26 incident in which a pupil attacked his classmate and gouged out his eye while the teacher was absent, according to a union press release Source: Agence Tunis Afrique Presse
