The spokesman of the municipal group of Cambiemos Murcia, Nacho Tornel, today accused the Minister of Education, Adela Martínez-Cachá, of not keeping his word to move the Spanish classes for foreigners that are taught in the afternoons at the Marqués Institute from Los Vélez to the Santa Rosa de Lima school, in Los Rosales, during the mornings.

Tornel explained that the counselor Adela Martínez-Cachá committed to make this change for the 2018-2019 course about a year ago, in a meeting attended by the Director General of Centers, Maria Remedios Lajara, and Vocational Training and Teachings of Special Regime, Sergio López.

However, after twelve months, the counselor "has not done anything" so that the mothers of the students of that school have Spanish classes during the morning in the same center where their children study, whose address has enabled a room for these classes, with total autonomy from the rest of activities after knowing the favorable attitude of the counselor.

For its part, the vowel of the municipal training in El Palmar, Ana Serrano, has indicated that it was the mothers who have requested this training course for years, as well as the change of location and schedules of the classes.

"In fact, Cambio Murcia took these requests through a motion to the municipal board in January 2017, and it was approved."

Serrano recalled that the school Santa Rosa de Lima is a center of preferential educational performance and works in coordination with the Social Services of the City and other community initiatives within Los Rosales, so that comply with the requests of mothers regarding the change of Spanish classes is a necessary measure to complement the social work that is being done there.

In this regard, he recalled that the order of the advisory of December 30, 2015, which regulates the posts and teaching centers of this type in the Autonomous Community, covers this type of actions.

"It does not make sense not to support an educational demand that immediately results in the social integration of these women, an objective for which both the City Council and the Ministry itself have been devoting efforts and resources for years," Serrano said, after reporting that we change Murcia will demand in writing to Martínez Cachá that it comply with the agreement, including that it is the Adult Education Center (CEA) of the Infante who will continue to be in charge of this work.
