The Congress of the Republic backed down and annulled the reincorporation of 14,000 teachers "pulled" from the teaching profession after the reconsideration presented by Fuerza Popular was approved by a majority. The final vote was 70 votes in favor, 32 against and 19 abstentions.

The president of the Education Commission, Luis Reymundo Dioses, asked that the project be re-evaluated in his working group so that a new text can be developed that collects observations such as the revival of teachers who do have a degree but they were not included in the public teaching career and the meritocracy.

In the request for reconsideration, the spokesman for Popular Force, Diethell Columbus, had explained that the law passed last week violates the Public Teacher Career.

"The substitute text of the Education Commission of Congress threatens educational quality, the principle of meritoriousness and the advancement of teacher reform, so it merits a new analysis of this," the document reads.

We have presented a reconsideration so that the law that goes against the #ReformaEducativa is voted again.

In relation to this law, the President of the Republic Martín Vizcarra, had advanced that the Executive would observe the norm because it gives a bad message to the teachers who made an effort to be adequately trained for this exam.

“Unfortunately it has to be observed. There are many teachers who go to great lengths to train, to study, to pursue masters, apply, qualify and pass. So it cannot be said that we will incorporate these 14 thousand who did not approve. Because, what message do we give to all those who make an effort ", said the president to the Sunday Panorama.
