The Regional Education Directorate of Tirana has sent an e-mail to the parents requesting detailed information regarding the number of students they would choose as the language of choice, Turkish, for children from 6th grade to 9th grade.

This request seems to come immediately a few days after the visit of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Tirana.

In a press release, the Minister of Education Evis Kushi denied that the questionnaire was related to the visit of the Turkish president on January 17, while emphasizing that it was done within the agreement approved by the Albanian delegation in Turkey last year.

"It is not right after Erdogan's visit, it started that in December English became a compulsory language in the first grade and according to the new curriculum in the sixth grade students will have a second language, which can be German, Spanish, French and based on the agreement that last January the Albanian delegation in Turkey approved several agreements and one of which is this, where it is predicted that we will do a pilot study to see if there is interest in learning Turkish. We have just started, there is no decision-making or imposition, we are just getting information, in Turkish schools the Albanian language is established as an elective language, if any, in which areas, will it be necessary to open elective classes or not " , said Kushi.
