Twelve out of the 29 teachers who had been let go by the Universite
Francaise en Armenia in Yerevan last July will be reinstated to their
former positions and will receive their back pay, according to a
recent verdict by a Yerevan court.
Thirteen teachers in all had taken the college to court but one came
to an outside settlement with the school. The school decided not to
renew the contracts of all 29 when they came due, later arguing that
the teachers had failed to meet certain quality standards.
Hrant Grigoryan, the school's attorney, refused to comment on the
court's decision.
