The Pride platform of the Basque Public School by the Basque Public School, not this Education Law! He called for the demonstration this Sunday in Donostia. The streets of Donostia-San Sebastian will be welcomed to show a “contrary attitude” to the bill and denounce that the bill is “privatizing”.
In June, “mass demonstrations” were held in the three capitals of Hego Euskal Herria and “many critical contributions” were presented by various agents of the Basque Public School in the hearings before the Parliament’s Committee on Education.
In its appearance, the platform explains its reasons to reject the bill: it perpetuates the dual public-private system, it does not prioritize the public school, it does not guarantee all students the use and knowledge of the Basque Country and it does not collect effective measures to cope with segregation, among other things. They add that the bill “supports indoctrination” and is based on “competition” between schools.
Responsibility of political groups
“If Euskera is to be strengthened, the public school must be strengthened,” said the members of the platform, and they ask all the political groups to take responsibility for it: besides betting on strengthening and protecting public services, they prioritize the Basque Public School and give “no” to the Education Law. Because they claim the Public Service “unique, common and for all”.
In defense of public services, therefore, in favor of the Basque Public School, not this Education Law! call for the demonstration. This Sunday in San Sebastian at 12:30 pm from Boulevard.

The new Education Act, which had to be born of consensus, was adopted in anger and disagreement. The lack of agreement is due to the public-private question and linguistic models. A lot of pity.

I thought I would write this article about the amnesty obtained by the Catalans, because that achievement has shown that everything can be negotiated and, above all, that nationalists have passed the historic moment of achieving anything but amnesty. Some negotiating the usual;... [+]
If the Education Act has to ensure sufficient knowledge of the official languages (level B2 at the end of the ESO) and once the current models do not guarantee that knowledge, as has been demonstrated by various research – doctoral theses, educational reports… – it is... [+]
