WE WILL DEFEND OUR CHILDREN'S RIGHT TO SECULAR AND SCIENTIFIC EDUCATION TO THE END!

As Cagdas Yasami Destekleme Dernegi

The Ministry of National Education calls it the "Turkey Century Education Model", which is not based on scientific foundations, does not include human rights and gender equality, brings religious education to the center of education, excludes the theory of evolution, and does not include enough Ataturk's principles and revolutions; WE DO NOT ACCEPT this program, which is far from meeting the requirements of contemporary and secular education!

We want a program focused on developing secular, mixed, scientific and qualified education prepared with a broad participation and transparent process, based on modern and scientific principles in line with Ataturk's principles and revolutions, as regulated in Article 42 of the Constitution, and highlighting the competencies of our children

WE DO NOT ACCEPT projects such as ÇEDES, which cause education to become religious, schools to be opened to sects and communities, and our students' right to secular and scientific education to be violated!

We want equal opportunities in education to be ensured in our schools, and to cooperate with secular, democratic and modern non-governmental organizations that will support our children's ability to think freely and their awareness of volunteering.

WE DO NOT ACCEPT projects such as MESEM, which pave the way for child labor and violate child safety and international conventions!

We want our children to grow up as individuals who think and question, and to switch to an approach based on learning by doing.

WE DO NOT ACCEPT policies that ignore the personal rights of teachers, the inadequate physical conditions of our schools, the large number of students in classes, and the principle of free and public education!

We want a public, free and qualified education system improving the personal rights of teachers and making the teaching profession respectable and attractive

WE DO NOT ACCEPT our children being faced with nutritional problems in schools in our country, which should be a social state in accordance with the provision of Article 2 of our Constitution!

We want one free meal to be provided for our children in all schools.

We condemn and DO NOT ACCEPT the oppressive and reactionary mentality that bans school graduation celebrations and questions the clothes and lifestyles of children coming to graduation!

We want education policies that support our children to grow up as free, self-confident and happy individuals under the protection of the secular state and society.

In accordance with the provision of Article 42 of the Constitution, educational services must be organized and carried out according to secular and scientific principles, in line with Ataturk's principles and revolutions, under the supervision and control of the state. Any attempt to the contrary is a violation of our children's right to secular and scientific education. We will defend our children's right to secular and scientific education until the end!
