Students were on strike in Pécs for their principale in Gandhi High School. It was founded for the talented Gypsy young. The advisory have replaced her after 10 years, and they appointed a new principale. Neither teachers and nor students supported this exchange.
4 of 68 employees cost their votes for the new principale.
The teachers and both the parents and students’ association backed up the formal principale with a great majority.
One of students remarked that despite the majority’s opinhion the unwanted candidate won after all.

If so, the Dr. Ambedkar High School maybe just a place for you…
- We are looking for teachers who want to mold the futures of a culture that so desperately wants to give back.
- We are a buddhist affiliated high school in the Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén and Baranya county of Hunagry that specializes in educating gypsies and marginalized peoples of the country.
- We also work to empower the families of our students, to ensure that they too will have a future of exellence through education.

Something I notice is different in Hungary is this: whenever you catch a train Hungarians seem very reserved. The other thing is once you are out of Budapest the passengers don’t go out the station through a barrier with a ticket collector as they do in my country. They simply walk off across the fields in the direction of their home. To me this all looks very strange.
