Concern for public education.
The Cantonal Party of Cartagena will launch five new municipal nursery schools if it has the possibility of government, alone or in coalition, after the next local elections.
The PCAN includes in its electoral program the creation of five new nurseries in Santa Lucía, San Antón, Los Dolores, Molinos Marfagones, and La Manga del Mar Menor, although the latter in a consortium with the neighboring City of San Javier.
These new centers will bring equal opportunities in all parts of the municipality.
Its opening will culminate the service already provided by the schools of the historical district, Barriada Virgen de la Caridad, Barriada Villalba, Los Mateos, Vista Alegre, Concepción district, Peral district, El Algar, La Aljorra, La Palma and Pozo Estrecho.
The candidate for mayor and general secretary of the Cantonal Party, Celestino García Alfaro, shows his complaint about the discrimination suffered by some of the councils in this area as well.
In his opinion, "it is difficult to understand that the western area of ​​the municipality, of great extension and numerous populations, lacks any municipal school".
García Alfaro does not understand that in La Manga del Mar Menor there is no day care since, in this tourist area of ​​services, very often the two members of the couple work in hospitality establishments and require these facilities more than in other places.
The centers of infantile education turn out at present fundamental for the conciliation of the labor and familiar life.
Public administrations must take a decisive step in the empowerment of education between 0 and 3 years by the current characteristics of the family nuclei in need of employment of both the mother and the father.
In addition, the difference in the price of the place in a public center, such as those proposed by the PCAN, and the private ones suppose gaps of up to 300% more in tuition, that is, almost triple the cost of the end of the month for the pocket of parents.
