That's exactly the point!
The HS teachers who work as bagrut checkers in all subjects have to
power to hold the ministry hostage if they ALL cooperate (NOT just the
English teachers alone) and work for everyone in the system, not just for
themselves.
The reason none of our protests, strikes or anything else never get us
anywhere is because we don't want to hurt the kids. Well, in this case, no
one will be hurting the actual education of the kids, just when they get
their piece of paper. The reason we are treated like dirt, our salaries are
deplorable and the conditions under which we work are appalling is that we
don't want to hurt the kids. So we hurt ourselves.
