PS points to Fernando Alexandre as candidate for worst education minister since the 25th of April

SAPO Notícias13 September 2026 at 12:19

The parliamentary leader of the PS pointed today to Fernando Alexandre as a candidate for the worst education minister since the 25th of April. The criticism arises in the context of a negative assessment of the management of the Ministry of Education during Fernando Alexandre's term.

The socialist considered it scandalous that hundreds of students are left without a place in public education. This situation reflects problems in the school placement system that were apparently not resolved during the period when Fernando Alexandre was in charge of the Education portfolio.

Fernando Alexandre was the education minister during the PSD/CDS-PP government, which ended in 2024. The comparison with the post-25th of April period establishes a historical milestone for the negative assessment of his performance.

Why this matters

Readers are directly affected by this situation because hundreds of students are left without access to public education, and the PS criticism represents a political attack on the PSD/CDS-PP Government of Luís Montenegro. This position follows the start of the school year, when the placement problem became more visible.
