translated from Spanish: They dismissed teacher who asked read to Pedro Lemebel

After the controversy at the colegio San Francisco de Quito, in independence, then that students of middle third would refuse to read a work by Pedro Lemebel, Professor of language of the premises was dismissed. 
It realizes a reportage of the Dynamo, who points out that the students in question considered how “disgusting” the author because of his sexual orientation. After that, the Professor presented a psychiatric leave of two months by the Institute of labour safety (IST). He then went to the Lyceum President José Manuel Balmaceda, and December 31 last, he was informed of his dismissal. 
In addition, the teacher received Decree Mayoral, signed by the Deputy Mayor, Luis Mayorga Baronti, who justify their dismissal. Among the arguments, impractical, is designated the “reorganization of the entity of educational administration, in accordance with the report of teaching performance prepared by the director of the establishment, informed the teacher is not articulated with the values of the” Educational institutional (PEI) project and in accordance with the annual Plan of development of Municipal Education (PADEM) “.” 
However, the teacher said, in conversation with the above means, that his dismissal responds to “a measure of repression against me. This was my third year in the commune of independence and my educational work had never been questioned in evaluations and was blameless.”
But this is not the only case. The Dynamo also made reference to the case of a teacher who asked students to draw what was for them tolerance and freedom of expression. One of the pictures was that of two men kissing. 
The teacher says that the pedagogical technical unit (UTP) rebuked it since “not I could speak of homosexuality at school”.
“The director said me that was for performance and when I asked him how it was my performance failed to respond to anything technical. In fact even asked my coordinator of the integration on my evaluation program. “Then, faced with this situation, I gather that my dismissal is my other thought, because I have made it clear that this is a school macho, sexist, and that also has affected my adaptability here”, said.
