Order no. 5139/16.09.2009 of the education minister amends the provisions of the education staff law that empowered general school inspectors to appoint school managers.
The order also stipulates that all appointments to management positions within schools, for the 2009- 2010 school year, made by school inspectorates, will be terminated starting September 16, 2009.
According to the new order, all school inspectorates will submit to the Education Ministry, within 48 hours, the list of propositions for further appointments to school management positions.
Under the education staff law, the general school inspectorate is entitled to appoint school principals or assistant principals.
Democrat liberal lawmaker Mircea Toader said he would organize a press conference on the matter on Thursday.
