Students are planning a protest outside of the MCAST Mosta Campus in support of lecturers, as talks for an agreement with the government have still not concluded. The theme of the protest is that of 'Tuna Edukazzjoni' (Give us education).
The gathering is scheduled to take place on Wednesday 27 November and begin at 11:45am, with the intention of the students being to block the main road between the Mosta Campus and the opposite Lidl store.
The organisers of the event stated that students at MCAST are "currently experiencing a profound sense of frustration and uncertainty due to ongoing industrial action by the Malta Union of Teachers". They continued that with teachers on strike, students feel that their futures are "hanging by a thread" and are "left waiting for the government to intervene while their education is compromised".
They are encouraging students to send emails to Education Minister Clifton Grima and Prime Minister Robert Abela in order to express concerns regarding the ongoing situation, stating that students are suffering due to restricted communication and academic feedback being withheld. The organisers state that they are requesting immediate action to be taken in order to resolve the situation and restore the students' right to education.
