Overview

  • The Education Ministry enacted an eight-level national magisterial scale for 2026 that updates the Remuneración Íntegra Mensual with differentiated 30- and 40-hour rates.
  • Official monthly pay under the new scale ranges roughly from S/3,500 at the first level to S/9,801 at the eighth level for a 40-hour week.
  • The decree’s published table lists, for example, S/3,500.70 at level 1 (30 hours) and S/9,801.96 at level 8 (40 hours).
  • The Executive reported transfers exceeding S/175 million to regional governments and to the Defense and Interior ministries to guarantee implementation.
  • Some outlets published lower 30-hour CPM figures (e.g., S/3,300–S/6,930) and noted a base of about S/3,300 for contracted teachers, but the Minedu decree remains the authoritative reference for amounts and rules.
