The new University Entrance Test (PAU again, and no longer EBAU, as in recent years) is keeping secondary school teachers in suspense and this Friday put baccalaureate students on strike. This is why, after the explanations given on Thursday by the spokesperson for the Council, Carlos Fernández Carriedo, the Minister of Education, Rocío Lucas, highlighted “the effort of the autonomous communities” to agree and publish as quickly as possible admission criteria. of which this will be the first selectivity governed by Lomloe. A schedule, matrices and even correction guidelines were made public on Wednesday. We must know the “type exam”, this will happen “in the coming days”.
“Last year, the exam models were known in February, the royal decree was published at the end of July,” Lucas said. “I think that we have made significant progress so that the teacher already knows what he has to give and can adapt to the new model,” he defended.
In the words of the owner, the reproach made to The central executive, which he accuses of “failures in its functions” in an exclusive competence which, according to him, should be made available to the Autonomous Communities. “There were 17 models that practically did not resemble each other, and it is a very unfair situation,” he lamented, emphasizing that the guidelines already available are the result of a consensus between the autonomy governed by the PP which aims to “homogenize”. while waiting for “this unique test “We hope that over time we will achieve this.”
And everything that “ensures uniformity”, he added, “will be very positive and very good for the students of Castilla y León”, he emphasized before speaking at the opening of the fourth days of “FP Talks”, which he attended the president of Empresa Familiar, Rocío Hervella.
The “common denominator”
“Reaching a consensus means that we must adapt to other circumstances, which is why all the Autonomous Communities have agreed to adapt our respective models,” she recognized, when asked about the “concessions” concerning the spelling in this new PAU. The adjustments also affect the matrices, i.e. “what goes in” and what does not. “The agreement indicates the common denominator between the Communities,” explained Lucas. “There are some who study Prehistory, others not, and therefore it does not enter into the matrix of History,” he illustrated, to ensure that They tried to “make the agenda as similar as possible.”
Meanwhile, students, gathered across Spain, expressed their discontent in the form of strike this same Friday, concentrating to protest against the uncertainty in cities like Palencia or Valladolid, in the latter case in front of the Ministry of Education itself.
Shortly before noon, Lucas said the data he had so far indicated an average tracking of 25 percent, with “fluctuations between provinces” and pending the data they continued to receive.
