Balanço Anual da Educação 2026

CIPES announces the publication of the "Balanço Anual da Educação 2026", prepared for EDULOG, the think tank of the Belmiro de Azevedo Foundation.

The study was carried out by a research team coordinated by Hugo Figueiredo and Carla Sá, with the participation of Orlanda Tavares and Pedro Luís Silva, all researchers at CIPES.

Presented on 15 June, the report provides an in-depth analysis of the Portuguese education system, highlighting key issues such as the growing number of foreign-national students in compulsory education and the historic decline in applications to higher education recorded in the 2025/26 academic year.

The presentation session also included a panel discussion on the decline in demand for Higher Education, with the participation of Pedro Teixeira, CIPES researcher, Professor Ana Balcão Reis, and Member of Parliament Ana Gabriela Cabilhas.
The publication of this study represents another valuable contribution to the debate on education policies in Portugal.
