The Supreme Court dismissed the teachers' cassation appeal regarding their dismissal from a special school. The school lawfully terminated employment but incorrectly set the termination date before the end of the school year, violating the Teachers' Charter. The court held that while the contract terminates at the end of the proper notice period, the teachers are only entitled to salary for that period and cannot claim reinstatement or damages.
