"Parents complain to authorities after Sharjah school sacks 13 staff members," 7 Jun 2022

Parents have complained to Sharjah's private education authority after the school their children attend sacked 13 staff members.

Twelve administrative staff and one teacher at Al Kamal American International School in Halwan were given termination letters last Thursday...

Sharjah Private Education Authority (SPEA) told The National that it is looking into the case and has already contacted the school.

Parents said they have approached Bin Kamil Group, owners of the school, and have voiced their concerns.

The staff members affected told The National that they were given the letters without a warning and no proper notice was served to them. Most have been with the school since it opened in 2017 for pupils from KG to grade 12...

According to Article 43, the employee or the employer can terminate a limited employment contract for any legitimate reason but a written notification should be given and notice of at least one month.

“There are some cases in which terminations can be carried out based on proven market changes,” Dr Elhais said.

“However, employees must be given a one-month notice period.”

The National has contacted the school for comment.
