Thousands of police officers with frozen careers because courses don't start

Correio da Manhã30 August 2026 at 10:04

Thousands of Public Security Police agents across the country have their professional careers frozen because the courses needed for progression are not starting. This situation is affecting numerous police officers who depend on these courses to advance in their careers.

The agents involved in this situation are deeply outraged by the state of affairs. Frustration among PSP members has been growing given the impossibility of progressing professionally.

Police officers point the finger at the National Directorate of the PSP as responsible for this situation. The entity responsible for police management is at the center of criticism for not being able to organize or get the necessary courses started.

The Government is also pointed out as responsible by the discontented agents. The governmental oversight of the PSP is also under pressure while thousands of police officers await a resolution for the unblocking of their careers.

A suspended strike and rejection of the "educational police": the 2026-2027 school year warms up with several controversial fronts

With a teachers' strike suspended but not cancelled, a demonstration planned for the 12th and strong rejection from school principals, teachers and inspectors of the reform that would transform the inspectorate into a kind of "educational police" to pursue alleged "indoctrination", the 2026-2027 school year begins in Spain with several controversial fronts open. The teaching unrest that culminated in a one-month indefinite strike continues without complete answers to its demands, despite partial negotiations during the summer. A march is prepared to not let the demands fall by the wayside at the start of this course.
