Thousands of teachers are expected to attend another national demonstration this Saturday in Lisbon. FENPROF believes this could be one of the biggest protests ever.
Fenprof general secretary Mario Nogueira admits that this protest could reach the level of 2008, when more than 100,000 teachers took to the streets.
Since December 9, teachers have been fighting for their rights and for the rights of teaching. The grievances are mainly related to promotions, career restoration, hiring and placement of teachers, and reduced working hours.
Teachers are also being asked to review the recruitment and placement model for teachers, as well as reduce working hours and assign tasks consistent with 35 hours per week.
