If it's a teacher that has been threatened by a dangerous person or has a partner working for the "specialised military/security services" and justly feels that they and their students might be targeted, then I would say they should be allowed to carry a weapon. But this is a matter that should be subject to public oversight and review. Israel is a dangerous place for certain individuals. And if one is going to be carrying a concealed weapon around students, then they should be required to undergo regular psychological evaluation as well as testing with respect to their assigned firearm.
@9FG7MNV7mos7MO
This should only be assessed on a case-by-case basis.
@99BQRFG1yr1Y
Yes, schools in areas where a security risk exists should require at least one faculty member to be armed.
@96WHQXT1yr1Y
Yes, but only in the territories
@8RQDQDG3yrs3Y
In Israel, I’d they are a trained former soldier or actively training in firearms, in a highly dangerous location is acceptable.
@8QV64H33yrs3Y
Depends on circumstances. A teacher licensed to own and carry a gun should be allowed to carry it.
