Still no resolution in MCAST industrial dispute

There is still no resolution to the ongoing industrial dispute declared by the MCAST’s administration over the collective agreement of educators. The Malta Union of Teachers responded with industrial action that includes no gradings for examinations this year. Students are requesting the MCAST administration and the Ministry of Education to come with a resolution with their educators. Protests have also taken place about this issue both by educators and students.

Failure to reach a resolution would mean that students would not be graded for their assessments and exams, and they would automatically be assigned a passing mark. Students also plan to hold further protests, particularly on the day of the graduation ceremony, to voice their concerns.

Meanwhile, the Malta Union of Teachers is currently holding internal elections for positions on its executive council.
