The Minister of Education announced a reorganization of basic education that includes merging the 1st and 2nd cycles, but this idea was received with more doubts than certainties by various stakeholders in the sector.
School directors, teachers and a former minister considered the announcement too vague, raising questions about the details and feasibility of the proposed measure.
To implement this reorganization, it will be necessary to make changes to the Basic Law of the Portuguese education system.
