The educators continue to hold their front with dignity, for which I am extremely grateful. Painstaking work is ahead to restore the emotional state of teachers and students, as well as to improve the educational process. But the most important thing is that learning process be safe, that every Ukrainian child have access to quality education, and that every teacher feel care and attention," said Education and Science Minister Oksen Lisovyi.
