The Education Ministry publishes the new allocation of teaching positions after the chaos.

BarcelonaThe Department of Education has already corrected the error it made last week. with my soul in my heart to thousands of teachers throughout Catalonia. An incident caused a pool of 57,000 teaching and professor positions for the next academic year that were supposed to be awarded to civil servants to end up being assigned to temporary staff, forcing the entire process to be redone less than two months before the start of the new academic year. The Regional Minister of Education, Esther Niubó, reassured teachers and families this weekend and assured them that the academic year would begin normally, after pointing out that behind this mess was "the intervention of a person who made a unilateral decision" that "violated regulations." This Monday afternoon, the department published the allocation of provisional positions. which you can consult here.

According to Niubó, someone ignored the department's resolutions and caused "serious incidents": 800 positions that should have been filled by civil servants were instead reserved for temporary staff. Following complaints from some teachers, Educació halted the process and has now announced the new assignments after working all weekend to resolve the issue. In total, some 3,000 teachers out of 57,000 candidates will see their assignments change. However, according to Niubó, it will be for the better: "Given the exclusion of these 800 positions, it will improve."

Meanwhile, the Education Department has opened an information file to clarify the events and act "rigorously, transparently, and in accordance with internal regulations," and reiterated its apologies to all those affected, as well as to the school administrations. Minister Niubó will appear on Tuesday before the Catalan Parliament's Education and Vocational Training Committee, at the request of the department itself, to explain the situation to the parliamentary groups and the measures adopted. A rally is planned outside the Catalan parliament to protest the department's management.
