The

60%

of additional teachers engaged by the autonomous communities has not yet been incorporated into the schools, even though the school year has already begun in several places in Spain.

It is denounced by the

Central Independent Trade Union and Officials (CSIF)

, which ensures that, of the

38,000

teachers that regional governments are going to hire to reinforce security in the classrooms due to the coronavirus, only

23,000

have joined their positions.

CSIF has denounced this Monday the "absolute abandonment", the "abandonment of functions" and the "lack of foresight" and "improvisation" of the Government and the autonomies since last March.

He maintains that "the blame is shared 50% by the

Ministry

and the

CCAA

", because educational competencies are shared.

The most important lack is the lack of personnel, because only

17,000

of the 38,000 new teachers

are trained

.

"There are autonomous communities that are making calls to cover these figures. They said they were ready, but the data does not indicate that. As of today, awards are being made in

Madrid

,

Extremadura

and

Aragón

", explains

Mario Gutiérrez,

CSIF's head of Education .

The union denounces that "space problems" and "organizational problems" are also occurring in this Covid-19 return to school.

"There is a general lack of material, training for the Covid coordinator, cleaning, resources, spaces ...", Gutiérrez lists.

He says that teachers who have hearing impaired students are sent normal masks when transparent masks are needed.

He assures that many educational centers have not yet received the necessary thermometers to take the temperature.

"The protocol does not adjust to the reality of the centers. They want 600 students to pass through a single door and have to take their temperature one by one. It is impossible to do it without forming crowds and without occupying the whole morning in it," he says Gutierrez.

CSIF presents a protest mobilization against the Ministry and the Autonomous Communities that will foreseeably be virtual.

"Why have almost all protocol autonomies changed? Why are there more than 20,000 teachers without joining? All this indicates that they were not prepared. In June they expected that with a mask and four signs on the ground they would be fixed But now they have started to get scared and we are in the situation we are in. "

Teachers demand more staff so that the ratio remains at 15 students per classroom - "If there is capacity in the theaters, it is not understood that there are not in schools" - as well as "adequate training" for the new figure of the Covid coordinator and "massive tests" for all teachers in Spain.

But above all, they want the administrations not to leave everything in the hands of the centers.

The Minister of Education of Andalusia,

Javier Imbroda

, has promised this Monday that the 6,400 teachers and teachers of reinforcement due to the coronavirus "will all be in their jobs" on the first day of the course and "at the disposal of the director and his management teams" .

The course begins on Thursday in the second cycle of Infant and Primary.

In Madrid, where the course begins this Tuesday, the Minister of Education,

Enrique Ossorio

, has indicated that "today the teachers who are in the bags will be called" so that on Tuesday they join the centers.

The Minister of Education,

Isabel Celaá

, has indicated that the hiring of more teachers by the communities is essential and has said that for this the resources of the central government were put on the table.

"We hope that the communities give priority to education," he said.
