The Hungarian government has decided to completely overhaul the country's school district system and the Klebelsberg Centre, Prime Minister Péter Magyar announced on social media.
The reform will introduce a public tender process to select new operators for the districts, marking a significant departure from the current administrative structure.
This domestic policy announcement arrives as Magyar prepares for what he has described as one of his most important parliamentary speeches to date.
The Prime Minister is scheduled to hold an emergency press conference later today, addressing both the educational reforms and broader national asset recovery initiatives.
The timing of the announcement adds to a complex backdrop of regional instability.
While the school reform is a domestic matter, it unfolds against a backdrop of heightened geopolitical pressure on trade routes, with recent reports of drone strikes affecting shipping in the Black Sea.
