Canary Islands Government Adds University Music and Arts Professorship Following Court Ruling

Background

The Canary Islands government has officially included a new university-level music and performing arts professorship in its 2023 public employment plan, following a court ruling.

The legal decision mandated the government to add a position for a CatedrĂĄtico de MĂșsica y Artes EscĂ©nicas (Professor of Music and Performing Arts) that was previously omitted from the original public job offer.

This move comes after a court affirmed the need to respect judicial rulings and enforce legal obligations.

Employment Allocations

  • The update specifies that 71 teaching posts will be allocated:
    • 30 for university professors
    • 41 for non-university music teachers
  • These positions are intended for those who held these roles continuously before January 1, 2016.

Goals and Impact

  • The adjustment aims to steady employment in the cultural and educational sectors.
  • Such court-ordered modifications underscore the government’s commitment to legal compliance.
  • They are also aimed at improving job stability for educators.

Broader Context

This move reflects ongoing efforts to regularize employment conditions amid broader public sector reforms in the region.

Community Impact

Residents, especially educators and students, could see this as a step toward more transparency and fairness in hiring practices, potentially affecting local cultural and academic communities.
