The Legislative Assembly of Madeira has approved changes to the teacher service time recovery regime, clarifying criteria and including work periods outside the region.
The Legislative Assembly of the Autonomous Region of Madeira has approved Regional Legislative Decree no. 6/2026/M, which introduces the first amendment to Regional Legislative Decree no. 23/2018/M.

Key new features include:
The diploma enters into force the day after its publication, reinforcing the regional commitment to valuing the teaching career.
The Council of the Government approved the termination, by mutual agreement, of the funding agreement between the Madeira Football Association and the Regional Secretariat for Education, Science and Technology.
