Minister of Education Leonid Bujor will request the four leaders of the Alliance for European Integration (AEI) to examine the situation created after the Government decided to reorganize five vocational schools and merge them with another five institutions, Info-Prim Neo reports. In a news conference on September 1, Leonid Bujor said that though the given Government Decision was adopted unanimously by the Cabinet that consists of representatives of the four member parties of the AEI, the statements made in the meetings with teachers, including from the five vocational schools, are diametrically opposed. The minister said he will propose several solutions that could help overcome the situation, including agreeing a schedule for gradually reorganizing these institutions, by halting admission to these schools for the 2010-2011 academic year. He considers the local councils should take over these schools that are now managed by the Government. Leonid Bujor refused to say who of his colleagues and members of the AEI criticize the decision to restructure the five vocational schools at meetings with teachers and ordinary people. “I will give names if such contradictory statements continue to be made,” he said. The Government Decision of August 18 says the Glodeni-based vocational school No. 17 will absorb the vocational school in Ciuciulea village of Glodeni district, the vocational school in Corbu village, Donduseni, will absorb the one in Tarnova village of the same district, wile the vocational school in Marculesti, Floresti, will be merged with the one in Targul Vertiujeni, the same district. The vocational school No. 4 in Balti municipality will absorb school No. 6, while the vocational school in Cantemir will become part of the vocational school working in Leova. According to Leonid Bujor, the ratio of these schools' employees to the students currently stands at 1 : 2 or 1 : 4.
