The unions value positively the “step forward” given by the ‘conseller’
The ‘conseller’ of Education, Josep González-Cambraywill convene at the beginning of next week the teachers strike committee For try bring positions closer in the open conflict with the educational community and that has already left three days of strikes in schools and institutes. This was announced late this Friday by the Department, which has not specified the dates of these meetings.
The unions had demanded that Cambray summon the committee to negotiate their demands and had rejected the initial proposal of the ‘conselleria’ to hold separate meetings with the various unions calling the strike.
For its part, Educació has lamented that the unions have left the sectoral tables and have not attended the last three meetings. The centrals justified the plants because they considered that there was no real dialogue, but that the decisions had already been made in advance.
Now the step taken by the Department could open the door to dialogue and the negotiation. Teachers have expressed their willingness to reach agreements that improve the quality of education and avoid further strikes. At the moment, new strike days are still called for the next 29 and 30 March.
