Two elementary schools in Sauk turn to “a nightmare” for students as they have no frontyard

Since two years, two schools in Sauk on the outskirts of Tirana have become a source of accidents for their students, as they do not have a yard. Students exit the school door directly onto the road.

Students’ parents from “Mustafa Greblleshi” and “Sandër Prosi” school in Sauk complained to the investigative program saying their children feel unsafe as there is no yard not even a school guard.
Fiks Fare looked closely at the premises of both schools, as in the primary school “Mustafa Greblleshi” the children of the second grade did their physical education class on the street, where cars were also moving freely. What was more disturbing is that the children were not accompanied by any of the teachers. Asked by tha program, the children claimed that they had the teacher inside drinking coffee. They also did not have guards, as the school cleaner opened the door for them. “Teachers drink coffee and we play here for gym class”, the children said.
Parents are worried about this, butsay  this is the only school they have near. The issue was brought to the attention of the Municipality of Tirana, which in its response clarifies that it has planned, as part of the medium-term budget program for the years 2024-2026, the construction of sports fields and the surrounding wall for the “Mustafa Greblleshi” and “Sander” schools.
After this response, the Municipality of Tirana reportedly started procurement and implementation procedures. Currently, the implementation contract for the creation of sports grounds and the construction of the surrounding wall has been signed. The municipality also says that it has taken measures to create an alternative route for vehicles, in order to avoid them crossing the road in front of the two schools.
