Candidates marked «disponible» who do not submit a request remain in the allocation process under the criteria in their destination preferences. The notice treats those posts as voluntary requests, meaning candidates may be assigned one in the first round. The 139 vacancies are due to be allocated on Friday, 13 November, and applications close at 10am.
The vacancies cover several teaching bodies. The breakdown includes 61 posts for primary teachers and 68 for secondary teachers. Vocational training technical teachers account for three vacancies, while specialist vocational teachers have two. There are also two posts for official language schools and three for music and performing arts teachers. No posts are listed for plastic arts and design teachers or workshop teachers in that field. The notice describes 123 posts as full-time, with eight itinerant.
Applicants may also seek posts from other recruitment lists if their qualifications are compatible. Participation is limited to people registered in Castilla-La Mancha’s lists; people both on and off those lists can continue taking part in telematic calls. Applications go through the new Education Portal, and the notice recommends consulting its access manual.
Availability status affects who can be assigned. Candidates currently marked «No disponible» who submit a request on Friday morning will automatically move to «Disponible» and may receive a post that day. Those marked «Disponible» on the allocation day cannot switch to «No disponible» before the process takes place. Availability can be changed on Thursday, but not on Friday.
UGT says that since 2025, candidates no longer need to justify a change to «No disponible» during the academic year, under the improvements agreement it signed. The union also says that people assigned in September or October to posts ending on 31 August 2027 will receive full summer pay and recognition. The same applies where an earlier-dated replacement ultimately continues until 30 June. UGT says more than 5,500 replacements have received summer recognition under the agreement.
The union is asking the regional Consejería to let staff whose assignments end on Thursdays change their availability and submit «a la carta» requests. It is also calling for publication of who is taking part under the over-55s and grade-based reservation schemes. For the latter, UGT wants the previous selection score disclosed, arguing that eligibility depends on the grade rather than a candidate’s position on the list. It says the grade reservation applies only to the speciality in which it was earned. The union is also seeking more transparency in telephone allocations.
Separately, RUSSPAIN covered the health-sector issue of foreign qualifications recognised in 2025; that report concerned the MIR exam, not these teaching vacancies.
