They don’t know why
The Department of Education doesn't understand why public employees have gone on strike. He's got to ask the LAB Syndicate. This union signed an agreement with the department in April 2023. Two years later they have also called for a strike because, unlike the previous ones, the Department of Education has not complied with the agreement.
More specifically, the department has not complied with the public education agreement. In the past two years, there seems to be no time for everyone.
But they have had time to write and approve a registration decree that damages the public network. When the decree has been rejected by the courts thanks to Steilas and EHIGE, they have had time to announce another document that will continue to harm the public school during enrollment. They have had time to reduce the number of children born to thirteen students in private schools and, at the same time, order mandatory mergers of public schools... because fewer children are born. They have had time to put the salary of private teachers at or above the public level, i.e. public employees hired on transparent and controlled criteria for equal pay with public money and private school employees hired on ideological and uncontrolled criteria. Finally, they have had time to pass an Education Law that puts the quota of private network and the public network in front of them, although the LOMLOE obliges the public authorities to promote the public network: The third point of Article 109 obliges them to "ensure a sufficient number of public places" and the fifth point obliges them to "progressively increase the number of places in the network of publicly owned educational establishments".
We go on strike because the Department of Education is rejecting the public network, which is the guarantee of social cohesion, secularism and Basque language
But the Department of Education doesn't know why we went on strike. We’ll have to explain it because that’s what teachers do best: when they ask us, explain it in detail.
We are going on strike because the department is rejecting the public network, which is the guarantee of social cohesion, secularism and Basque language. Strike because it does not intend to negotiate honestly with the union delegation: sit down once and for all, determine the content and timing of the debate, agree on a treaty that respects the public school and its staff, and publicly announce the timetable for compliance with the agreement.
At the same time that he told us that he did not understand the reasons for this, because the department made it clear to us that we will have to do it crazy at the negotiating table.
We went on strike in January to give the department a month, until February 26, to actually let us go without a reason for the strike.
