School principals are considering dismissal due to the inability to guarantee the minimum services introduced after the Union of All Educational Workers (STOP) went on strike.
The leaders fear that they will not be able to comply with the decision, which specifies a minimum of three hours of classes per day, the Jornal de Notícias said on Tuesday.
“The directors want peace. I know several who not only admit that they are retiring, but also believe that they are not performing the minimum service,” Manuel Pereira, president of the National Association of School Principals, told the same source.
This situation was aggravated by the continuation of the STOP strike. On Tuesday, the union announced a strike until 10 March.
For Manuel Pereira, the observance of minimum services is unrealistic and constitutes “an unacceptable restriction on the right to strike”.
Maintaining minimum services prevents special education and weekly teachers from joining the strike as one class needs to be provided in each area.
The judges, who implemented the decision, which took effect from February 16 to 24, believe that the extension of the strike could jeopardize the estimates of the second period.
As quoted by Jornal de Notícias, the president of the National Association of School Leaders ensures that assessment is jeopardized not by strikes but by a shortage of teachers.
