Back to school: There are at least '70 thousand students who will start the school year without at least one teacher'

Now11 September 2026 at 12:50

At least 70 thousand students will start the school year without having at least one assigned teacher, according to data mentioned in the article. This situation reflects the shortage of teachers that the educational system currently faces.

Cristina Mota commented on the situation, highlighting that the government measures implemented have not been sufficient to mitigate the problem. The main cause pointed out is the number of retirements in the educational sector being higher than the number of new teachers entering the system.

Mota also referred to the Education Ministry's plans regarding the reduction of the timetable, although the article does not specifically detail the content of these measures. The lack of teachers thus affects a significant number of students right at the beginning of the school year.

Porto considers it "fair" that the State financially helps future works in health centers

The Porto City Council considers it "fair" that the State co-finances future rehabilitation works in the municipality's health centers. The council had already identified, in 2024, several health centers whose rehabilitation could apply to the Recovery and Resilience Plan (PRR), but ended up dropping some applications due to the too short deadlines imposed by the program. The mayor, Rui Moreira, defended the need for state support for these interventions, highlighting that the municipality cannot bear alone all the costs of requalifying health infrastructures.
