Courts The TSJC requires 25% of classes in Spanish in all schools in Catalonia due to its "residual" use
Blow to linguistic immersion.
The Supreme Court has rejected the appeal of the Generalitat against the ruling of the Superior Court of Justice of Catalonia (TSJC) of December last year that urged all educational centers to give 25% in Spanish since it considers that the use of this language is "residual".
Since 2014 and until now, the TSJC established that 25% of subjects in Spanish should be given to students whose families had requested it and the Generalitat systematically refused, relying on the linguistic immersion model and only affected some students. However, the decision of the TSJC, endorsed by the Supreme Court, obliges the Generalitat to "adopt the necessary measures to guarantee that all students receive effective and immediate teaching through the normal vehicular use of the two official languages in the percentages that are determined and that may not be less than 25% in both cases ".
After knowing the judicial decision, the Minister of Education of the Generalitat, Josep Gonzàlez-Cambray, and the Minister of Culture, Natàlia Garriga, Gonzàlez assured that "it is a serious attack on the foundations of the Catalan school perpetrated by a distant and unknown court of the reality of Catalan educational centers ". In addition, they indicated that schools should not change their language projects and recalled that the appeal that gave rise to this decision was presented by the State Attorney in 2015 on behalf of the Ministry of Education, then the PP, against resolutions of the Generalitat in the matter of use of vehicular languages in teaching.
For this reason, the representatives of the Generalitat stressed that with the application of the Celaá Law, the judicial decision should not be made effective.
Despite this, the TSJC recalled that its decision goes beyond the planned educational reform, since it analyzes the legal framework within the vehicular use of languages in teaching: the Statute of Autonomy of Catalonia, the Catalan Education Law, the LOE and several judgments of the Constitutional Court.
