The center of the village of Torre Pacheco faces its educational work with the ratios in each class the legal limit and 40% of foreign students.
With the increasing enrollment of students occurred during the school year and unstoppable population growth area in 10 years the center has been saturated and have had to eliminate specialized areas such as classroom Plummer, physics lab and 4 departments to transform them into classrooms.
Like other centers in the Campo de Cartagena, as Carthago Spartaria IES La Palma, over 30% of the teaching staff than the 17 hours per week, which violates the Template Agreement signed by the Ministry of Education, Training Employment and labor unions under the previous Social Compact for Education.
The Human Resources Department in budget savings and faculty who do spend on whiteboards and unused accumulated in schools because the Department itself has not provided the projectors to be launched, as is the case of the 4 whiteboards IES Roldán.
In turn, this Department does not assign Therapeutic Education teachers needed to meet the diversity of students in these centers because, according to your instructions, this year can not compute students with limited intelligence in the ratio of pupils with special educational needs special (SEN), a fact which seriously undermines the teaching of students.
The Association of Parents of IES of Roland, along with the management team has had two meetings with the Director General of Department, Maria Jose Jimenez, who consistently denied the expansion of space and educational provision.
According to the Association, the Director General blamed the parents of Roland for opposing the construction of a concerted, single solution offered by the Department.
Again, this decision demonstrates the interest of the Director General to promote private enterprise at the expense of the public system.
The Federation of Education wishes to remind Mrs. Director General, to implement the freedom of choice of schools by families, she must respect the will of those parents who seek a quality public schools for their children, rather than allowed to deteriorate as a gateway for private intervention funded with public money it is denied by the state schools.
As a public service responsible for this attitude is intolerable.
Sources with the faculty of the institute, the Association of Parents of IES Sabina Mora de Roldán announced mobilizations for after the holidays.
Their demands for improved public education in this center will have the full support of the Federation of Teaching CCOO.
