Marneuli. Nizami Mammadzadeh - APA. There is Azerbaijani sector in
the Armenian school in Khojornu village of Marneuli for years.
APA's Georgia bureau reports that Armenians pupils go to Azerbaijani
secondary school in Tsopi. 50 out of 350 families in Khojornu are
Azerbaijanis. Nine pupils study in Azerbaijani sector of the school.
They are taught by four or five teachers. There are two rooms for the
Azerbaijani pupils in school. Earlier, there were all conditions for
our compatriots to study and 60-70 pupils went to school. The number
of the Azerbaijanis at this school has recently reduced. Azerbaijani
residents of the village moved to Azerbaijan and Russia because of the
unemployment. As there are no necessary conditions to study at school,
some parents take their children to the secondary school in Sadakhli.
There is the tenth form in Azerbaijani sector from this year. After
the pupils finish school, there will be no Azerbaijani sector at
school. Head of Marneuli Education Resources Center Kamandar Ismayilov
told APA that there is no national-ethnic problem in Khojornu school.
"The pupils study normally. We have provided them with the textbooks
brought from Azerbaijan. Armenia sent textbooks for the Armenian
pupils. The main problem is the lack of teachers. We have sent three
teachers to Khojornu school this year. If we can not find teachers
for this school, Azerbaijani sector will be soon closed," he said.
