Marina Gonçalves: "The interpretation was very wrong" about João Costa

Observador10 September 2026 at 12:08

Marina Gonçalves, PS member of parliament, reacted to statements by João Costa, former Education Minister, regarding the PISA 2025 results. The socialist rejects that the former government official absolved the current Government and assumed total responsibility for the lower performance of Portuguese students. The member of parliament interpreted that there was a misinterpretation of João Costa's words. This reaction comes at a time when the PISA 2025 results place Portugal in a less favorable position compared to previous assessments, generating political debate about responsibility for educational outcomes.
