Teachers who educate children aged 0-3 in Navarre demand an increase in wages and a reduction in the number of children each educator is responsible for. Diana Bruño Artazcoz, a member of the platform of educators, has explained to us that the 0-3 Platfoma "we have spoken to all political parties, but have not committed to them".
Regarding the attitude of politicians, Bruña has stated that "the first cycle of education has suffered systematic violence since its origins". Today, ratios are "unsustainable" for educators: per teacher there are 8 boys and girls from 0 to 1 years, 12 boys and girls from 1 to 2 years and 16 from 2 to 3 years. To give an idea, the European Commission’s Child Care Network recommends half of the ratios in Navarre in each age group.
