A Basque public school
Ibilaldia 1986. Group Song Words: “One and the same is enough for the Basque people, a public opportunity.”
We have on the table a reflection driven by the Basque Government. It seems that it intends to be a strategic convention, and I fear that in the CAPV (Autonomous Community of the Basque Country) the nucleus will be tackled or that each one will shield its chiringuito.
The education of thousands of children in the CAV is the bottom line. Of all. The starting point is not very good. We have internalised – on behalf of Christianity, on behalf of cooperativism, on behalf of pedagogy, on behalf of the right to choose parents – that some children have X education, others Y and others Z.
The path of the Basque Country, also in education, has not been easy until now. And yes, he's had enemies at home and in the states. But if in the CAV, today and here, we do not set in motion a system of linguistic immersion for all children, today we will be sowing seeds for the problems of the future of the Basque Country.
Models A, B and D have been justified in the right of parents to decide, but today public schools in model A keep newly arrived parents “oriented” towards them.
It is not easy, however, to reach “one and the same”. The first problem is that we are hardly going to convince the communities of school concerts to leave their privileged status in favour of a better public school for all children. They don't want to. Double funding – public money and family quotas – gives them the advantages of each organising themselves according to what their chiringuito creates and not having in the patio the children of the people with the least resources in society – it is a general rule for some concerted schools of a few peoples.
Half of the students are concerted, and if you are looking for allies, as I do not believe in Christian charity, the closest are those of the Federation of Ikastolas. I ask, we can unite if the Basque public school “is”:
– Unique immersion model?
– To have at least – and, if possible more – the autonomy that they have had in the Federation of Ikastolas, and that they also bring their educational heritage to the public?
– What they have had so far through double funding through public funding?
– And in the territories that need it (Seaska, Navarra, Treviño...). Are we going to continue to work with the ikastolas association?
I do not want to destroy anything, I seek allies in the Federation of Ikastolas to make the children “Scandinavian, Korean and Black Swahilis” Euskaldunes tomorrow. We will promote a public Euskaldun school. And that the adult who doesn't want it, pays the private school that they want.

Andoni Urrestarazu Landazabal was born in the village of Araia on 16 July 1902 and died in Vitoria on 21 November 1993. It is now 31 years old and I think it is time to recognize his name and be, because the legacy he left is not well known. Umandi used the name of a mountain in... [+]
Autobiography writing is, they say, the most effective tool for personal development, the most liberating. Pulling things away from the past and remembering them, it seems that it helps unleash the knots of the present. Yes, it helps to understand the present and to draw a... [+]
I have done a review from the announcement of the pandemic to the tragedy in Valencia and have concluded that the disastrous institutional management that lies and forupe as firewalls is constant of the ruling class.
We do not have a valid substitute ruler as long as this... [+]
November 19 is World Bathing Day. Even today, in the twenty-first century, many workers here in the Basque Country do not have the right to use the toilet in their working days. Many transport workers are an example of this.
Toilets are the key to public health and play a... [+]
We know that artificial intelligence is representing many fields in human beings: comfort, speed, efficiency ... We've been led to believe that human endeavor is an obstacle to the speed needs of this capitalist world. The aggressions to reduce our chances of doing, doing and... [+]
In recent weeks it has not been possible for those of us who work in architecture that the climate phenomenon of Valencia has not been translated into our work discourse. Because we need to think about and design the path of water in decks, sewers, plazas and building parks. We... [+]
Self-esteem sometimes seems intimate. But if self-esteem is about the image that you have of yourself, about the value that you give yourself, you'll also have to see the decisions that you can make. What value does someone who can't decide have? So we start to look at our mother... [+]
The Sanmartines are well known in our homes, as it is time to kill the pig. However, many people will not know that before St. Martin's day marked the end of the agricultural year. And that was no nonsense. In fact, at the end of the year, I had to pay an annual rent to my... [+]
For a whole week we have talked about the book The Adventures of Pinocchio by Collodi, in the classroom of the university, with teachers of Early Childhood and Primary Education. Our main reference has been the nice edition that Galtzagorri published in 2011, which included the... [+]
“You learn walking and singing.” This has been one of the subjects this week in the groups of C2. It wasn't about learning to sing or walking, it was about using the future correctly. The activity has given me what to think and I've wondered how we learn to teach. I've heard... [+]
The survival of the Basque country is not the only problem that the Basques play in the political game, but rather, as a more characteristic element of Euskaldunisation, the one that most reflects our situation. It shows very well what does not appear so much in other areas... [+]
In Sociology of Education there is a classical question: Why does the education system exist in a society? The answers to the question are numerous and change according to the time. But among them, it should be noted that the main objective of the school is the creation of... [+]
With the words of poet Vicent Andrés Estellés, I am one among so many cases, and not an isolated, rare or extraordinary case. Unfortunately, no. Among so many, one. In particular, according to the Council of Europe, and among other major institutions such as Save The Children,... [+]
The housing problem is a structural problem that comes from far away. What should be a human right is nothing more than a subjective right. I say that it is a fraud because, although all the institutions and all the political parties say nice words, they do not grasp the... [+]
