  • Minister of Culture Sarmite Elerte: it is wrong to place the issue concerning the transition of all state funded schools to Latvian language only to the referendum
The Minister of Culture Sarmite Elerte believes that it is wrong to place the issue concerning the transition of all state funded schools to Latvian language only to the referendum. Although the Minister considers that “the idea, possibly, is good, but the decision to bring it to the referendum is absolutely wrong” because this issue demands fundamental changes in the education process. The Minister believes that the proportion of subjects taught in Latvian in minority schools should be increased gradually.
