The PP challenges the Government with a common EBAU in the autonomous communities where it governs

The President of the Government should not invent anything for his educational reinforcement plan announced last weekend during a rally in Galicia. Alberto Núñez Feijóo invites him to copy the PP's educational plans, if "his concern for education lasts longer than a Socialist Party rally lasts."

The president of the PP traveled to León this Wednesday to, in the company of the president of Castilla y León, Alfonso Fernández Mañueco, talk about education in the autonomous community that has obtained the best results in the latest Pisa report, which highlights deficiencies in mathematics and in reading comprehension.

Feijóo highlighted that if, when looking at the educational map of Spain, according to the Pisa report, the autonomous communities with the best results, above the average, are four autonomous communities governed by the PP for quite a few terms, such as Castilla y León, Galicia, Madrid and Murcia, will have something to say.

For this reason, the plan that the leader of the PP proposes to the President of the Government is that he copy the plans of the PP, "that we are responsible for 70% of the students." Let him pay attention to the measures that he has been developing for years, and "copy them well and completely," because this way he will be able to improve education.

Alberto Núñez Feijóo stressed that the PSOE "imposed a law without talking to the experts or the parties" as it does when it reforms the Penal Code, he said, "without reports from the judges," or approves an amnesty "without asking for reports, because they know that will be negative".

So the first advice from the president of the PP to the Government is that the motto cannot be "more ideology than knowledge", because "politics can be done in many places, but not in our children's classrooms." On the contrary, in his opinion, schools and classrooms "must be emptied of ideology and filled with knowledge."

The PP's proposal for this improvement in education, within that educational reinforcement plan proposed by Pedro Sánchez, is, in addition to "copying the PP's measures", a common EBAU throughout Spain, because "it makes no sense to have 17 tests to access to the same university system", which in his opinion "would mark a before and after in a decentralized system but that would have a common link".

This is what the 11 autonomous communities governed by the PP will do, an EBAU with common content, and what they will propose when addressing this educational reinforcement plan, which the president of Castilla y León, Alfonso Fernández Mañueco, demanded that be consulted with the autonomous communities because his, he said, has something to say, and even more so after the results of the Pisa Report always place it in first or second place, competing with Galicia, another autonomy governed by the PP.

The PP will also propose that special education not end, but that it be an option for families whether their children go to ordinary or special education. And what the PP is also clear about is that "education cannot be a thrown weapon, nor can social engineering be used to take young people where the Government wants."
