They denounce that the Basque Government is pushing for the privatization of education

  • The STEILAS trade union has denounced that the Basque Government is pushing the private school’s wager and policies with “various tricks”. He has denounced that the privatization process begins in the first cycle of Early Childhood Education and extends to the university, and that it is translated, for example, that the Basque educational system is the one that most segregates students due to its origin in the Spanish State.

Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

The union has emphasized that one of the highest rates of concerted centers in Europe is the Basque educational system and, according to several studies in recent days, it is the one that most segregates students by origin in the Spanish State.

Using “tools, tricks or mechanisms,” they “put red carpet on private school.” For example, according to the union, “it has become common for private centers to plan more classrooms than those authorized by the administration at one stage and to conclude agreements from the management of the centers in Lakua outside the legal framework. This means accepting the enrollment of more students than the authorized ones. All this with the approval of the educational administration. There are dozens of cases in the CAV that claim that this is happening, and STEILAS has sued one of them.”

“Starting from the freedom of choice of the school for parents,” he states that the privatization process begins in Early Childhood Education. “In many cases, as long as there are vacant places in the public haurreskola of the neighborhood, of the town... public subsidies are granted to the private school next door, duplicating the service, increasing and generating unnecessary excess”.

The process reaches its culmination in university: “Instead of having a strong and well-equipped UPV, instead of providing it with the necessary resources, the leaders of the PNV – with the approval of the PSE- have devised the Basque University Ecosystem to match the treatment between public and private universities.”

The trade union has also referred to the controversial private university Euneiz which will be launched from September in Vitoria-Gasteiz protected by public funds.

"Prioritize public education. No to privatization!" Under the motto 'Enough water and rain' they have manifested themselves in Lakua.
