It seems that the matter with the companion for Mario, who attends the A' Lyceum and suffers from cerebral palsy, has been resolved.
In a post on social media, AKEL MP Andreas Pasourtidis stated that he had contacted the Minister of Education who informed him that the issue had been resolved and that the actions to hire an escort had already begun.
Such is the announcement
I have been informed this morning, by the office of the Minister of Education, that the matter regarding the companion for Mario has been resolved and the procedures for hiring a companion to serve Mario's needs during school hours have been set in motion.
I would also like to publicly thank both the Minister of Education, Athena Michaelidou, and the officials of the Ministry, Panagiota Chrysostomou and Olga Papademou, who took up and ran the issue as soon as I put it before them.
As intense as we are sometimes in our criticism of matters that should be taken for granted, we must be so unforgiving when we have to give credit to those who work to satisfy the just demands of the citizens.
Very soon, Marios will have all the facilities he needs to be able to enjoy the quality and level of education necessary to pursue his dreams.
