Fernando Alexandre, Minister of Education, has been described as a candidate for the worst Minister of Education. The criticism arises in the context of problems in the Portuguese public education system.
The MEP Eurico Brilhante Dias was the political figure who expressed this position against Fernando Alexandre, considering the current situation of public education scandalous.
According to Brilhante Dias, it is unacceptable that public education leaves hundreds of people out, preventing students from accessing public education, which is compulsory.
The statement highlights concern about failures in access to compulsory education in Portugal, with hundreds of people affected.
