La Nación, a major Costa Rican news outlet, published a series of tweets on February 10, 2026, reporting on recent announcements from the Ministry of Public Education (MEP) and an inquiry by the Supreme Electoral Tribunal (TSE).
In its first tweet at 00:46 UTC, La Nación stated: ” MEP anuncia cambios en tamaño de los grupos de preescolar, escuela y colegio: ministro promete que no se despedirán docentes https://t.co/zPtKv5jadP”. A similar message was reiterated four minutes later in another post: ” MEP anuncia cambios en tamaño de los grupos de preescolar, escuela y colegio: ministro promete que no se despedirán docentes https://t.co/tm8FekGtOG”.
Later that night at 01:15 UTC, La Nación reported on an investigation involving a stylist’s purchase of bonds from the political party Pueblo Soberano. The tweet read: ” TSE pide cuentas a estilista por compra de ¢15 millones en bonos de Pueblo Soberano https://t.co/FkR64XtDeh”.
The Ministry of Public Education (MEP) in Costa Rica is responsible for setting educational policies and standards for preschools, schools, and high schools across the country. Changes to group sizes can affect classroom dynamics but may be implemented to address enrollment trends or resource allocation. According to the ministry’s statements as cited by La Nación, these changes will not result in teacher layoffs.
The Supreme Electoral Tribunal (TSE) oversees electoral processes and campaign financing in Costa Rica. Its request for clarification regarding the stylist’s purchase of ₡15 million in bonds reflects ongoing efforts to ensure transparency in political funding.
