Minister of National Education Yusuf Tekin answered questions from Kanal7 Ankara Representative Mehmet Acet.
Minister Tekin also responded to a question regarding whether there would be any flexibility concerning absenteeism in schools.
Stating that "there is no situation that warrants flexibility," Tekin said:
"While so many of our teacher colleagues are making sacrifices, while the state is building so many schools and classrooms, and while it is investing in education and training processes, I do not find it right for our children to spend time in environments other than school. We will continue to be determined on this matter."
