I am following with fascination the Orbán government’s reaction to the “teachers’ revolt” that originated with a single complaining letter from a high school in Miskolc, a town that’s not exactly the center of Hungarian liberalism.
Xpat Opinion: Teachers’ Revolt Brewing In Hungary?
- 21 Jan 2016 7:00 AM
- community & culture
I have the distinct feeling that something is afoot in Hungary, something the self-satisfied Orbán government is not prepared for. I see the beginnings of a movement that may well overcome the current apathy and resignation of Hungarian society and produce active resistance to the Orbán regime.
Xpat Opinion: Criticism & Self-Criticism Of Hungarian Teachers
- 14 Oct 2015 9:00 AM
- current affairs
I have written many times about the state of Hungarian education, which in the last 25 years has gone through multiple changes, not necessarily for the better. In the past I usually concentrated on the quality of education and teaching methods and bemoaned the fact that, as far I can see, life hasn’t changed very much in the last 60-70 years in the average Hungarian school.

One and a half million Hungarians live in dwellings unfit for human habitation. No bathroom, toilet out in the yard, windows that let in the cold air, walls black from smoke. In Ág, a small village in the southern Hungarian Baranya county, the locals washed themselves in wash tubs. Last year Habitat for Humanity appeared and offered building material for volunteer work.
Hungarian Schools Struggle To Provide Certified Drug Prevention Programs

Successful drug prevention is more than just a police officer in front of a blackboard talking about the harms of the different drugs. Only long-term programs can be successful but they are expensive and the schools have no money. Civil organisations would do it for free but they hardly get any state support.
