The Minister of Education, Fernando Alexandre, admitted that there are more than two thousand positions to be filled in Portuguese schools. This situation arises at a time when the education sector faces challenges in the allocation of teachers to schools.
Fernando Alexandre assured that there are teachers available to meet the needs identified in schools. The minister stressed that the situation is being managed and that there are teachers who can be allocated to the existing vacancies.
The minister postponed a more precise assessment of this issue until the end of the week. This wait is related to the holding of another teacher placement competition during that period.
The admission of thousands of vacant positions comes in a context of continuous search for solutions to ensure that all schools have the necessary human resources to function properly.
