Education contributes personnel and avoids the suspension of the school canteen

Vaneda Morales, president of the Association of Parents of Students (AMPA), yesterday showed the satisfaction of the school community of the center located in the urban area of ​​San Miguel de Abona. The measure satisfies the demand that they raised before Education for two weeks due to the lack of personnel: an assistant who corresponds to the center due to the increase in a dining room module as a result of the change in category of the school, as well as a caretaker and the cook, both on temporary sick leave.

The resolution of the Ministry of Education issued yesterday is equivalent to a transfer order for a kitchen assistant and a dining room assistant, who arrive today at CEO San Miguel Arcángel from another school. “In principle, it seems that the issue is resolved” by applying a measure that “until now they had not applied”, and which the parents also previously raised. “We believe that this staff will remain here until the cook and the assistant join,” says the president of the AMPA. “Starting tomorrow (for today), normalcy returns to the dining room and we will once again offer two dishes to the students,” announced Vaneda Morales.

The cafeteria of this school has had problems since the beginning of the course, a month and a half ago. The reconversion of the San Miguel Arcángel Early Childhood and Primary Education Center (CEIP) into a Compulsory Education Center (CEO) entails an increase in students and users of the dining room, for which Education granted the increase of a service module and staff with an assistant. So far he doesn’t have it. That and the lack of the cook and a caretaker led to announcing the suspension of the dining room as of Monday, given the impossibility of guaranteeing the safety of the students in the room and on the patio. “Everything seems resolved,” according to Morales.
