Francesc Freixanet, director of the Antaviana school institute in Barcelona. “The ‘conseller’ paints it easy, but legally the directorates have a responsibility and he will not be able to cover that,” he points out.
“I expected something more legal,” he said for his part Maribel Tarres, director of the Jaume Cabré institute in Terrassa. “These are very general instructions. I don’t know if it’s real protection. We can’t feel safe with them,” she added.
Anna Micalo, from the Fructuós Gelabert school, did not see it very clearly either. “The instructions tell you to review your educational project and that’s it. They don’t say more. I don’t know if we will receive more instructions later,” he said.
Tarrés, like many colleagues, wonders how these instructions will protect them if a complaint is filed against their centers. In the press conference after the Consell Executiu, and expressly asked about this matter, the ‘conseller’ Josep González-Cambray He has insisted that Educació and he personally assume “all responsibility”.
