The Ministry of National Education announced on Wednesday an exceptional extension of the registration deadlines for recruitment competitions based on qualifications for teacher positions for the year 2025. This measure applies to several education directorates that recorded a shortage of candidates relative to the number of open positions.
The statement explained that this decision was made as part of the continuous monitoring of the competition process. The ministry aims to ensure the necessary pedagogical staffing across various educational institutions, noting a lack of applicants in certain provinces and subjects.
Following approval from the General Directorate of Civil Service and Administrative Reform, registration deadlines have been extended from Thursday, January 15, until January 20, 2026. This extension is for candidates seeking positions as Primary Education Teachers (First Grade), Middle Education Teachers (First Grade), and Secondary Education Teachers (First Grade).
The extension applies to specific subjects and provinces as detailed in the attached schedule, with an exceptional exemption from the requirement to provide a residency card.
The announcement noted that registration and the submission of required documents are conducted exclusively through the electronic platform of the National Office of Examinations and Competitions. This process follows the stages, conditions, and procedures specified in Circular No. 713, dated December 11, 2025, and its annexes, regarding the organization of qualification-based competitions for teacher positions for 2025.
The Ministry of National Education concluded its statement by emphasizing that this is an exceptional measure taken after exhausting the list of candidates from the concerned provinces. It reaffirmed that priority remains, in all cases, for residents of these provinces according to the provided table.
