New meeting on qualifications for primary school teaching "was useless", says Fenprof

The government has approved a decree-law allowing schools with teacher shortages to hire graduates in Basic Education who have not yet completed their pedagogical training to teach the 1st cycle (years 1-4). The Fenprof teachers' union held a supplementary negotiation meeting with the Ministry of Education on Monday 9 November 2026, but reported that the government's proposal remains unchanged.
