For its part, Councillor for Education believes that "having a new school in 2014 will not solve the educational problem of Jumilla" |

Yesterday there was a town hall meeting between representatives of Jumilla in the education community and policy makers to discuss the best solution to the problem of education in the locality.

It was attended by Mayor Francisco Abellán, the Councillor for Education Fuensanta Olivares, director of public and private schools, the IES Infanta Elena, parents, teachers and representatives of the AMPAS of schools and other council members of the corporation .

The director of IES Arzobispo Lozano excuse his absence, but sent the minutes of the School Board agree to this center.

This meeting was intended to meet the agreements of the various school councils on whether Jumilla need a college or high school.

According Fuensanta said Olivares' opinions differ, so that these agreements will be transferred to the Minister of Education, as well as we promised, to take a decision. "

The council says that "having a new school in 2014 will not solve the educational problem of Jumilla, whose enrollment rates are declining."

Olivares has indicated that the ten minutes submitted to the council, "there were five who supported the construction of a school and yet, in other four shows not understand the need for a two-line center."

Agreements on school boards that support the construction of a school, "there were different criteria in the sense that some say is the single line and others who do, in the sector R-2 and R-3 instead of the R-1, but now that option is not feasible because these areas are not developing according to the General Urban Plan (Plan), "said the councilman.

Those who do not understand the need for a two-line school argue, as Fuensanta Olivares, "This school does not solve the educational problem of Jumilla and is going to suffer in the future, since we are talking about at least three years to be a reality the building, to relocate facilities, staff and students of Prince Philip and that can provide the Infanta Elena, and in those years, the schooling can vary greatly, both Primary and Secondary Education. "

For the mayor of Education "a possible solution should be analyzed more, than in 2014/15, when the center is completed, we realize that the decision was a mistake and has generated more problems, such as removing lines at other schools, since the evolution of schooling data so indicate, or lack of attention to other important needs that schools have. "

Although Olivares Fuensanta deemed to have been very interesting debate and the contributions "have not been able to unify the criteria and think of the common good of the municipality, which will transfer the findings to the Ministry and is it who takes decision, since it ultimately is the one with the responsibility for education in the region. "

Finally, the responsibility for education in the local council has stated that "the intention of the government team is at all times, working in conjunction with the Department to obtain the maximum benefit for our town in the educational field."

In the meeting between the Mayor and City Council of Education in December, the Minister of Education Sotoca Constantine told Jumilla policy makers that "are more advanced proposal is to build a new school near Prince Felipe and it becomes an extension of the Infanta Elena Institute, "reported at the time Francisco Abellán.
