The government has accused the Stop union of failing to demonstrate good faith during negotiations, asserting that it will not engage in talks under pressure. The Secretary of State for Education highlighted that the union's protest during meetings was perceived as a disruption, leading to the government's refusal to negotiate. The Stop union chose to continue its protest rather than attend the meeting, prompting the government to emphasize that any disruption would prevent negotiations from occurring. This situation has also led to the Federação Nacional dos Professores (Fenprof) declining to meet with the government regarding the teaching career statute, criticizing the government's stance as unacceptable. The government is looking to implement changes to allow unqualified teachers to join the Ministry of Education, but unions are concerned about the implications of limited training opportunities.
