Prime Minister Montenegro recognized this Friday that "education has lost quality" in Portugal, during the ceremony of inauguration of the Barbosa du Bocage School Center in the city of Setúbal. This declaration comes at a time when the education sector faces several challenges in the country.

Despite the admission of the problem, Montenegro guaranteed that the Government is adopting measures to reverse this situation and improve the quality of education in Portugal. The prime minister did not specify which concrete measures, but emphasized the executive's commitment to education.

The inauguration ceremony of the Barbosa du Bocage School Center served as the stage for this intervention, symbolizing the investment in educational infrastructure. The school facility represents an effort to modernize the teaching conditions available to students.

The visit to Setúbal is part of a series of trips by the prime minister around the country, where he has addressed various governance issues and presented the executive's plans for different sectors.
