The Municipality of Guimarães will proceed with a new Educational Charter and a requalification program for primary schools, scheduled to begin in 2027 with funding included in the Municipal Budget. The announcements were made by the Mayor of Guimarães, Ricardo Araújo, this Thursday, at Teatro Jordão, during the presentation of the Municipal Plan for Arts, Culture and Heritage in Guimarães Schools.
The session was also marked by the signing of a collaboration protocol with the National Arts Plan, reinforcing the municipal commitment to education and school culture. Ricardo Araújo highlighted that intervention in school facilities is one of the municipal priorities for the coming year.
In parallel, a new maintenance and repair model for school facilities has already entered a pilot phase, involving four school groupings. Primary schools have already been identified and prioritized according to existing needs and degree of urgency, allowing the Municipality to prepare a response that is both programmed and financially sustainable.
