Did the public school close its door?

Público14 September 2026 at 21:30

This is an editorial by Helena Pereira that questions access to public school. The title, "Did the public school close its door?", suggests that there are children who cannot enter the public school system. The subtitle indicates that there are children, whether 1300 or just three, who stay home waiting for a response while classes have already begun. The text addresses the issue of children who cannot find a place in public school, raising concerns about access to education. The editorial appears to criticize a situation in which the public school is not responding to the needs of families, leaving children without a response at a time when the school year is already underway.

Why this matters

The article denounces a failure in the public education system that directly affects families in the region, leaving children without access to education while the school year has already begun. This situation follows a trend of overload of public schools and raises questions about the capacity of the local education system.
