According to ANEP, more than 5,800 teachers will be appointed to their positions after competitions
The General Directorate of Secondary Education (DGES) of the National Public Education Administration (ANEP) announced that more than 5,800 temporary teachers will become permanent for the first time in nine years.
The positions are for professor, assistant professor, director and assistant professor. This “represents a significant advance,” said Cherro.
The organization celebrated “the completion of the process of homologation of the lists of teachers who participated in the competition for the provision of effective positions of Secondary Education teacher,” according to ANEP in a statement.
“This competition marks a milestone in the consolidation of the educational system” and takes “a firm step towards stability and strengthening of educational communities,” the text adds.
The competition ended with 5,231 teachers with the possibility of becoming permanent. The resulting priority lists will be valid for three years from the date of their approval, ANEP reported.
In turn, after six years, the DGES also called for a competition “to fill the positions of adjunct professors.” This will enable another 405 officials to take up their positions starting in March of next year.
“Furthermore, and after eight years without a call for applications to effectively fill management positions, a call was made that has already ended and that will enable 175 directors to assume their positions effectively starting in March 2025,” the document highlights.
Finally, last Saturday, August 24, the competitive examination for the competition to fill the positions of assistant teachers was held, which will determine whether more than 200 teachers have the opportunity to achieve effectiveness in their positions.
“It is gratifying to announce one of the great achievements of this administration: the implementation of more than 5,800 teachers. This achievement not only represents a significant advance in the job stability of teachers, but is also a clear testimony to the commitment of this administration to the continuous improvement of public education. We have worked tirelessly to strengthen the educational system, and this implementation is part of that effort,” said the Director General of Secondary Education, Jenifer Cherro.
