Communication with media – development
The MUT refers to yesterday’s circular issued by the Education Ministry (ref PS 08/2025 of 4th March 2025) which effectively supersedes the previous circular on communication with media (ref DES 28/2024) and other previous communications. In the new circular, the Ministry refers to the central government policies as the only ones applicable to employees in the Education Ministry.
This is what the MUT has been requesting, namely that educators are subject to the same policies concerning communication and media applicable to the public administration and that there is no distinction between public officers employed with the Education Ministry and other employees with other Ministers or the Central administration.
In view of this development, the MUT is withdrawing the national petition issued whilst thanking all members and the public for adhering to the cause and for securing this positive development.
