Galician educational infrastructure and management protests

Overview

Protests have emerged in Galicia regarding the management and physical state of educational facilities. In A Coruña, hundreds of parents and educators gathered to oppose changes to the management models of municipal nursery schools. The protesters are demanding transparency following a public tender process that transitions six out of eight schools from worker-led societies to multi-service companies, arguing that pedagogical stability should take precedence over economic interests.

In Tui, more than 300 students and families marched to demand the Xunta de Galicia execute a reform of the CEIP Pazos de Reis school. The community reports that the 65-year-old building is in unsanitary condition, citing issues such as humidity, leaks, and deteriorating furniture. Although a reform project has been drafted, the Xunta de Galicia suspended planned works in June due to budget constraints, leading local associations to demand a concrete start date for the project.
