Although the quarantine regime in Spain is valid for a month, and cancel it, obviously not going at least until the beginning of the summer (though this Prime Minister will take another a couple of times in the Parliament put to a vote the question of its extension), the country has still not decided what to do with students who have had disrupted educational program. A number of associations of parents, pupils and staff wrote a collective letter to the Minister of education Isabel Celaa and the regional authorities with the request to open school for the summer.
It argues that this is necessary not only for children who have not received the necessary knowledge, but also for their families. After all, schools can organize students and classes, and Lunches and leisure. It will have very useful in difficult economic times that are waiting for many families (thousands of people lose their earning capabilities because of the restrictions, the closure of the restaurants, hotels, shopping centers).
Most students moved on to distance learning since mid-March, but 14 percent of them this is not possible. It is what was written in the appeal to the Minister.
However, many teachers and their unions uniting against extra work in the summer. They argue that children and teachers need to relax before the new school year. Also part of the summer and so is spent in preparation for the new course.
A compromise solution has already offered to human rights defenders from NGOs "save the children". In their opinion, schools can only work in the mornings, from 8 to 12 until the heat (in Spain in July-August the temperature rises to 40 degrees), and can carry out interns.
Among other proposals, announced in Spain in connection with the standing problem – the revision of programme for next year, to include what did not pass this year. However, this may require the adoption of a special law. It is also proposed to provide all schools and all students technicians needed for distance learning, said the newspaper El Mundo.
