On Saturday, the Ministry of Education of the Dominican Republic (Minerd) issued clarifications regarding the number of students awaiting school placement nationwide. Initially, the Teachers' Association (ADP) claimed that 400,000 students lacked school spaces.
Minerd subsequently stated that the actual figure of students pending placement was around 6,000, explicitly disputing the ADP's much higher estimate. Conflicting internal figures were also noted in the reporting as Minerd adjusted its own statements regarding whether the pending total stood at 6,000 or 9,000 students.
