PS leader accuses Montenegro of trying to whitewash chaos in national exams

Notícias de Coimbra30 August 2026 at 15:02

The PS secretary-general, José Luís Carneiro, today accused Prime Minister Luís Montenegro of attempting to hide the "chaos in national exams." Carneiro spoke with criticism, claiming that the government is trying to downplay the seriousness of the problems that arose during the conduct of national exams. The conflict erupted between the two main political forces in Portugal — the ruling coalition led by Montenegro and the socialists, whose leader is Carneiro. This situation reflects the political tension regarding the organization of the education system and the government's responsibility for ensuring the proper conduct of exams.
