9.1Initial education for teachers working in early childhood and school education

Last update: 14 February 2024

In order to teach in the different non-university programmes established by Article 100 of Organic Law of Education 2/2006 (LOE) as amended by Organic Law 3/2020 (LOMLOE), it is necessary to hold the corresponding academic qualifications and to have the pedagogical and didactic training established by the Government for each programme.

Institutions, level and models of training

The initial training of early childhood education technicians and early childhood and primary education teachers is concurrent, i.e. it combines theoretical and practical training related to teaching with training and study in the subjects they will teach as teachers. 

The training of future teachers of Compulsory Secondary Education, Baccalaureate, Vocational Training and Special Regime Education is consecutive, i.e. they first receive academic training in the specific subjects of their chosen first-cycle university degree and, after obtaining the degree, they acquire a master's degree in pedagogical and didactic training which includes internships.

Initial training is provided in different institutions and lasts for different lengths of time depending on the level of education at which the teaching profession is to be pursued.
