The new 2026/2027 school year begins this Friday for basic education students in Portugal. The return to class takes place in a context marked by profound changes in the educational system.
Schools face significant challenges that continue to concern the school community. Among the main problems is the lack of teachers, a situation that affects various subjects and levels of education.
With the implementation of new rules and changes in the educational system, the beginning of this school year represents a period of transition for students, teachers and families.
