Around fifty teachers from the António Arroio Artistic School in Lisbon are protesting this Tuesday, March 17, against precarious employment contracts, with a similar demonstration taking place in Porto. “António Arroio and Soares dos Reis in the same fight” is one of the signs visible today in front of the artistic school in Lisbon, where teachers of specialized visual and audiovisual arts are gathered. At issue is the precarious professional situation of about 200 teachers from the country's two artistic schools who have been teaching subjects like cinema or performing arts for years but remain without a recruitment group that would allow them to obtain permanent tenure, Fenprof secretary-general José Feliciano Costa told Lusa.
