MDP Calls Out Government for Straining Mental Health of Teachers, Wellbeing of Students

The opposition Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP) condemned Education Minister Ismail Shafeeu's remarks in Parliament, accusing the government of straining teachers' mental health by forcing excessive work due to a shortened academic year. The MDP stated that extra school activities were suspended under the pretext of protecting teacher mental health but actually to accommodate the curriculum. Shafeeu responded that the Ministry had planned over 140 sports tournaments and emphasized the need to balance competitions with teacher welfare, promising to reorganize events. The MDP called for more responsible decision-making.
