The 613 students who didn't have a placement already have a school. They were all "distributed to existing classes"

CNN Portugal14 September 2026 at 22:47

The 613 students who didn't have school placement in Lisbon have already all been assigned to classes. The distribution was done administratively to existing classes in the region's schools.

The solution was found after a meeting that lasted more than seven hours between the Ministry of Education and about 30 school principals from the Lisbon council.

The meeting served specifically to resolve the situation of students who still didn't have an assigned school, finding available places in the already formed classes in the various schools in the municipality.

With this measure, all 613 students had their school placement guaranteed for the current school year.

Why this matters

This news is relevant for students and families in Lisbon who were without school placement guarantees, as well as for school principals who needed urgent administrative solutions. The resolution through distribution to existing classes may have implications for the capacity and resources of the schools involved.
