Radko Sáblík thanked the voters for their votes in the Senate elections and stated that he respected their decision to prefer his opponent. He congratulated Václav Láska on his victory and wished him success in the Senate; he also appreciated the decency of his campaign. He thanked the student team that prepared and organized his campaign, as well as its contributors, especially the ODS. At the same time, he apologized for not being able to convert the funds raised into a Senate mandate. Sáblík stated that the unsuccessful candidacy marked the end of an important chapter in his life. For the next two years, he wants to focus on handing over the Smíchov High School to his successor and concentrate entirely on the school, rather than continue striving for changes in Czech education.

Vladimír Piskáček wrote that he asked his daughter why she needed a basic calculator when she has a mobile phone. She showed him a message in the school group on Teams, according to which all students were supposed to buy one because the minister banned the use of mobiles. His daughter explained to him that the teachers switched from WhatsApp to Teams after Minister Plaga prohibited teacher groups with students on WhatsApp. Piskáček stated that he verified the ban and that according to him, Plaga generally banned WhatsApp due to concerns that disadvantaged children may not have smartphones. He added that he was pleased with the ingenuity of the class teacher and that in his opinion, they would manage even with any further bans. #vzdělávání #technologie #školství (translated)

Petra Pecková stated that she heard Motorist MP Miroslav Krejčí talking about the need to significantly increase the number of special schools in connection with changes to school inclusion. According to her, Krejčí said that the capacities should be provided by the regions, and that if these were insufficient, their funding from RUD could be reduced. Pecková asked if Krejčí knew how much money the regions had lost since January due to the current government's measures. According to her, the Central Bohemian Region is now roughly four billion crowns in the red. She noted that the state sent the region two billion less for social services, another 500 million crowns is intended for salary increases in social services, and about 900 million for changes in wage tariffs and salary increases for officials, cultural workers, and public administration employees. The increase in wages in healthcare, she said, means an impact of 450 million crowns. She further wrote that the regions lost money for regional roads, estimating the impact on the Central Bohemian Region at between 340 million and one billion crowns over the years. According to her, she did not even take into account the VAT from compensations to public transport carriers, which should have an impact of 1.4 billion crowns. Pecková messaged Krejčí that if the regions lose funding from RUD due to insufficient capacity of special schools, which she claims do not have the means to build them, he could finance them from donations from his sponsors. She added that money from gambling could thus serve a good purpose. #školství #inkluzivnívzdělávání #sociálníslužby (translated)
