Montenegro says school "lost quality". But solutions...

Prime Minister Luís Montenegro stated in Setúbal that the Portuguese school has lost quality and rigor in recent years, supporting the diagnosis with the PISA 2025 results, and announced a 170 million euro package to modernize 35 schools in the Setúbal Peninsula, funded by the EIB, as well as 500 euro monthly incentives to attract 600 teachers to the region. However, experts warn that the measures lack legislative scheduling, that execution depends on annual budget allocation in the State Budget, and that structural reforms require parliamentary approval, while the restriction on mobile phone use remains without a defined regime. Montenegro's discourse softened within 48 hours, no longer attributing blame exclusively to previous governments, although experts dispute the use of PISA as a curriculum assessment, emphasizing that results depend on socioeconomic variables and that improving skills takes about a decade to produce effects.
