Government changes teacher placement: schools can now hire daily

SIC Notícias9 September 2026 at 17:10

The government changed the rules for placing teachers in schools. The main change allows schools to hire teachers daily, without having to follow the traditional placement processes that existed previously.

According to the Minister of Education, this change will bring benefits to students. With the new measure, students should spend less time without classes when a teacher is absent.

The replacement of sick teachers or those who retire can be done more quickly. This means that schools will have more flexibility to ensure that classes continue to run without major interruptions.

Notebooks of the West – Chronicles of a country between the law, custom and reality

A proposal from the Portuguese section of Transparency International, led by João Ribeiro, suggests the criminalisation of "cunha" (using connections) in Portugal, creating a new crime called "undue intermediation for access to public decision-making", punishable by up to three years in prison. The proposal, sent to parliamentary parties in July, aims to distinguish between legitimate contact with public officials and the use of personal, family or institutional relationships to obtain undue advantages in public decisions. The text warns that the measure cannot become a "forest of forms" and that the real challenge will be ensuring that citizens without contacts have the same possibilities as those who know decision-makers, defending that the revolution will be making cunha unnecessary.

The spokesperson for the Popular Parliamentary Group, Ester Muñoz, accused Sánchez of having "lied" for a month about the management of the migratory avalanche in the Spanish city, doing so "without shame, without blushing, with alarming coldness and lack of empathy".
