Narrating the U.S. and Israel Aggression Against Shajareh-Tayyebeh School in Minab: Reflecting Its Dimensions in OERP’s Educational Products

In a session titled "Narrating the U.S.-Zionist Aggression Against Shajareh-Tayyebeh School," officials from the Organization for Educational Research and Planning (OERP) gathered alongside provincial colleagues, bereaved families, and eyewitnesses (attending online) to outline operational strategies for transforming the "blood of the oppressed" into an "educational tool."

According to the OERP Public Relations and International Affairs Department, the meeting was chaired by Dr. Ali Latifi, Deputy Minister and Head of OERP. Participants explored ways to reflect direct accounts of this crime and its martyrs through the organization’s various platforms, including "Roshd Magazines," textbooks, multimedia products, festivals, and supplementary books. The discussions focused on producing documentaries, educational stories, and specialized bulletins to document the lessons of sacrifice and resistance at Shajareh-Tayyebeh School, as well as the hollow nature of American human rights claims, as enduring truths of contemporary history.
Forging a Deep Connection Between the Shajareh-Tayyebeh Tragedy and Educational Curricula

Emphasizing the necessity of converting the Shajareh-Tayyebeh School tragedy into diverse and rich content formats, Dr. Latifi stated: "The OERP is committed to producing lasting educational packages and pedagogical products by utilizing the firsthand accounts of families and colleagues."

Highlighting the existing capacities within textbooks and Roshd Magazines, he added: "Our objective is to forge a deep connection between this event and educational topics related to its various dimensions. This aims to institutionalize a profound understanding of the hollow claims of global hegemonic powers and the spirit of sacrifice and martyrdom among future generations."

Dr. Latifi announced plans for publishing special issues in upcoming editions of Roshd Magazines (for both students and adults) and dedicating special categories in the organization’s specialized festivals, including the Roshd Film, Book, and Photo Festivals. He emphasized: "These measures will not only be short-term; they will continue long-term through the support of documentary production and fiction books."
In conclusion, he noted: "The primary priority is to create a cohesive framework for addressing this subject, ensuring a proper reflection of its various dimensions within various educational and pedagogical formats."
