SIC Notícias14 September 2026 at 13:30

The school year starts with significant problems in the education system. Students are left without places in public schools, while there is a shortage of teachers in schools.

The Minister of Education acknowledges the gravity of the situation affecting the start of the school year.

Despite the difficulties pointed out, the government official guarantees that all students will have a place in public school.

Why this matters

Readers are directly affected by this situation, as families face uncertainty about where their children will study. The minister's guarantee that there will be a place for all students raises questions about how and when the problem will be resolved, especially regarding the shortage of teachers that is already evident at the start of the school year.
