The same thing happened on my Octy 1.4 2014. The dealer said that the problem was caused by me using Halfords screen wash. I stripped the rear motor assembly, and found that the problem is actually a design fault in the use of sintered bronze on the hollow spindle that directs the screen wash from the inside supply pipe to the outside nozzles. The water is driven against the top of this pipe (inside the plastic 90 deg bend), and erodes the sintered bronze into a fine gritty paste that not only blocks the jets, but can also block the pipe itself, causing most of the problems that you read about concerning rear wipers/washers not working properly. This problem had been around for years and both Skoda and Valeo (who actually make the part) are surely well aware of this ? And they both make It so difficult to find a spare through anyone other than the Skoda dealership.
