MCAST students from various institutes have come together to demonstrate against the industrial dispute between the college administration and academic staff represented by the Malta Union of Teachers.

The students are suffering from neglect as teachers refuse to do anything but deliver lectures. No assignments are being given or corrected and no attendance records are being kept amongst other things.

The dispute centres on a collective agreement the terms of which have never been finalised.

Attempts at reaching agreement have been unsuccessful with the MUT ordering its members to strike for two hours on April 30th.
