Leadership changes reported at Mokranjac Music School and Serbian National Theatre

The teaching council of the Mokranjac Music School has formally requested the resignation of acting director Tanja Andrijić. In a meeting held on November 5, 2026, 75 out of 95 present members voted in favor of seven conclusions regarding the school's management, personnel policy, and the current director selection process.

The council has also requested that the Ministry of Education investigate the legality of the director selection process and the impartiality of the commission president, Aleksandar Hrnjak. Teachers expressed concerns regarding staff distribution, professional qualifications, and organizational decisions.

Separately, Željko Andrić has been appointed acting manager of the Serbian National Theatre (SNP) following the resignation of Dragana Milošević. Andrić, a former director of the SNP Opera, takes over the role after the Provincial Government's appointment. Milošević's departure follows previous calls for her removal by the SNP Independence Union, which cited legal and statutory concerns regarding the extension of her acting term.
