In all schools, children learn, it is a fact. However, we always seek the best for our children. The low birth rate is due to the lack of opportunities perceived by people of childbearing age. This situation allows families to choose the type of education for their children, whether private or public.
The Board is concerned about the decrease in school-age children and is working on enrollment processes that guarantee appropriate educational attention. The drop in birth rates has led to a reduction in the ratio in many classes, necessitating greater involvement of families in their children's education.
In the enrollment process, it is important to consider why families decide to have one or no children. The Infant and Primary units have fewer than 25 children in 93% of cases, which poses new challenges for coexistence and individualized attention.
Despite the decrease in birth rates, more educational units have been created to accommodate the diversity of students. There is a search for greater integration of children in schools from an early age, promoting early enrollment and early identification of special needs.
Regarding vocational training, an increase in places has been observed along with greater attraction to this type of education. Collaboration between the family and the school is essential, as is respect for teaching authority. Autonomy of educational centers is promoted to adapt to the needs of each context.
In short, the goal is to ensure quality education for all children, regardless of the type of school chosen by families. Early enrollment, attention to diversity, and the promotion of vocational training are some of the pillars on which current educational policy is based.
