Donald Tusk, the Polish Prime Minister, has publicly responded to media rumors surrounding a potential government reshuffle, specifically addressing the speculation about the resignation of the head of the Ministry of Education (MEN). He firmly stated that there are no plans for such changes, particularly pointing out that Barbara Nowacka, the current head, is expected to show more decisiveness in her decision-making processes. This follows discussions regarding health education, which, despite other announcements, has been made voluntary rather than mandatory.

As part of the potential government reconstruction, it was speculated that significant changes could occur before the summer break, notably with the focus on whether to retain current officials or appoint new ones. While the education sector has been a focal point, Tusk's remarks suggest a desire for stability and continuity, particularly with respect to educational policies and leadership. The Prime Minister’s comments may also reflect an understanding of the political sensitivities involved in education reforms and their implementation.

Moreover, there is an upcoming decision regarding the Deputy Minister of Education, Katarzyna Lubnauer, expected by the end of March, which adds another layer to the discussions surrounding the Ministry. Tusk's proactive denial of the rumors underlines the pressure on him to address both internal party dynamics and public expectations regarding education reforms in Poland.
