IU-Greens concerned about the rising price of kindergartens (23/04/2013)

Councilman IU-Greens in Murcia, José Ignacio Tornel, today expressed concern over the rising price of service municipal nursery schools, which has been considered a "new economic work" for citizenship.

Tornel noted that increased rates of educational services exceeds "reasonable" because it has risen between 160 and 166 percent, depending on the level of annual per capita income, to which we must add the payment of 50 euros as registration fee fee.

He explained that the monthly cost of dining service has risen from 64.50 to EUR 80, up 124 percent, while the beneficiaries of the reduced rate, which are families with incomes less than 2,300 euros a year, suffering a general increase 170 percent.

In his view, these fees, which impose "economic disparities that undermine the possibility of access to those who do not have sufficient income", invite other alternatives outside the educational service.

"Again, the model of care for lower income rebates not intended to guarantee the right of everyone to education," he opined Tornel.

In addition, the mayor has failed that "while the council announced their account surplus, families are having to take on a new increase" and has insisted that infant schools "is not merely a resource to facilitate access of both parents to the labor market. "

"It is, he added, an important educational development of children.'s Why this type of schools exceed the expectations of conciliation centers".

On the other hand, lamented that the city government has not created any public square of this educational profile in the last 17 years, showing "appreciation for the rights of families Murcia".
