📋 Tender Overview
The Ministry of Education reports the suspension of distribution of the Cape Verdean 10th Year and Culture Handbook (LCCV). This decision was made as an opening gesture to technical-scientific dialogue and demonstrates the moderation of the ministry in the search for comprehensive solutions, wishing education to be a union factor for all Cape Verdeans. As stated by the minister, Amadeu Cruz, the Ministry of Education does not adopt a dogmatic stance, does not feed controversies that can divert the focus of the essentials: educational reforms and continuous improvement in the quality of education. It is important to remember that the discipline of LCCV, as well as its teaching materials, is experimental, according to article 14 of Decree-Law No. 28/2022, which approves the curriculum structure of secondary education. The introduction of this discipline in the Secondary Education curriculum aims to contribute to the creation of conditions for the officialization of the Cape Verdean language, in accordance with Article 9 (2) of the Constitution. Faced with the radicalized position of some citizens, the Ministry of Education understands that it should not contribute to the increase of tensions. Therefore, the distribution of the manual was suspended, reaffirming our humility and openness to welcome technical-scientific contributions, as always manifested by the minister.
