Danijel Ivanovi\u0107 from Kru\u0161evac, a physical education teacher, found out overnight that he would no longer be working at the “Stevan Hristi\u0107” Music School. Even though he had started the new school year with his class, a notice of termination arrived. Ivanovi\u0107 believes the background is political, because he publicly supported students and, as he says, attended protests in his free time. The school denies that this is a act of retaliation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After 16 years, teacher Danijel Ivanovi\u0107 found himself on the street. He was handed a decision stating that “as of tomorrow, he should no longer come to work.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Behind it lies a political background. And an opinion that differs from theirs,” Ivanovi\u0107 begins his story for N1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And everything, as he says, started from the moment when students took to the streets, demanding justice in Serbia. Ivanovi\u0107 believes he had an obligation to support them and stand by their side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I was at every student protest. But not during working hours, rather when they were organized on weekends. That is probably the reason. I also went to the head of the school administration. He told me he didn’t have time to talk. Even though my livelihood is threatened. I was not informed in time. They waited for the last day to fire me. There is not a single breach of work obligation,” Ivanovi\u0107 says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
