Missing a teacher? Schools will be able to hire teachers every day

CNN Portugal9 September 2026 at 14:55

The Ministry of Education will implement a new competition for hiring teachers that allows schools to replace teachers who fall ill or retire more quickly. The current system, based on pools and recruitment reserves, has proven too slow to meet the needs of schools.

With this new competition, schools will be able to hire teachers every day, eliminating the delays that occurred when a teacher needed to be replaced. The goal is to ensure that classes are not left uncovered for long periods.

The measure comes as a result of difficulties faced by the education system in the timely hiring of teachers. Schools at various levels were affected by a lack of teachers, especially in specific subjects.

The new recruitment model aims to simplify the bureaucratic process and allow greater flexibility in the management of schools' human resources. This change is expected to contribute to greater stability in the functioning of classes.
