The economic crisis also bills the private teaching centers that students are losing according to the Association of Autonomous Private Education Centers.
Last year, about 1,960 students from private schools abandoned them to enter public or concerted centers, the cause is simple, it is mainly for economic reasons, specifically, because one of the parents has lost their job.
From the private education sector, they have calculated that the crisis has taken almost 16% of students enrolled in nursery schools, 3% in Primary and Secondary and 8% of high school students.
While for children as a solution, many families have decided to take them to public nurseries or not to school them and to teach them at home since at this stage schooling is not mandatory, high school students are taken to public school , despite the reduction of prices on the receipt that some private centers have applied.
He increase of students in public education It comes just at a time of cuts. The unions remember that this course there are 3,000 fewer teachers in the public and another 500 in the concerted, despite the increase in students in both.
The advance of bilingualism in public schools and institutes It is one of the reasons that according to the union that brings together private and concerted teachers, they are influencing private schools to also lose students in Primary and Secondary, although in a smaller percentage than in Baccalaureate. Of course, these teachers ensure that they also notice the cuts in what refers to the reinforcement classrooms for students with school delay and make it clear that the substitutions are not covered either.
