The US Supreme Court has given the go-ahead for the Trump administration to continue the dismantling of the Department of Education, including cutting staff by almost 50%. The blueprint, backed by the US right-wing, has been challenged in court by some 20 states and labor unions, which claim it violates the principle of separation of powers. The justices overturned an earlier stay of the executive order, prompting criticism from progressive judges. Although complete dismantling of the department requires congressional approval, its impact on local education could be significant.
