Student Strike and Call for Improvement of Conditions in Schools
September 18, 2025
The Cyprus Students' Coordinating Committee (PSEM) has announced a nationwide student strike on September 22. They argue that students are suffocating due to serious problems in schools, such as lack of air conditioning and the need for dress code changes during the summer months. PSEM urges the Minister of Education to take immediate action to improve conditions. If their demands are not met, they warn they will escalate their protests. Among the issues raised are power outages and safety concerns in classrooms.
