The data collected in 89% of the educational centers in the Community of Madrid (105 centers out of a total of 118) reveal that public vocational training in our region is experiencing a schooling crisis . Regarding higher degree studies, of applications, have been rejected and only 14,976 have been admitted. In percentage terms, 54% of higher-level applications have been rejected due to lack of public places, that is, more than half. Although these figures correspond to 89% of the data collected, they serve as a clear indication of the total percentage. This is what the CCOO of Madrid denounces in a recent report. Isabel Galvín, general secretary of the Teaching Federation of this union, accuses the government of Isabel Díaz Ayuso of wanting to “end public vocational training” and warns that the lack of places “in addition to affecting the future of more than young people will affect also to the productive fabric of our region.” If we add these 17,976 young people without a place in a higher degree to the 6,938 who are left without a place in the intermediate level, it results that almost 25,000 young people are left without a public place in the vocational training studies they had chosen.
In the case of degrees of high popularity, and therefore of increasing demand, such as Marketing and Advertising, Styling and Hairdressing Management or Production of Audiovisuals and Shows, the percentage of excluded students reaches two thirds (60-70%). For CCOO, "what is most serious" after a pandemic situation that has revalued health practice both at the work, social Australia Phone Number and community level "is the monumental lack of public places in health studies." Here the percentage of excluded in some cases exceeds 90%. In Dietetics, for example, 69% of applications have been rejected; In Dental Prosthetics, 78% of students are left without a public place; in Clinical and Biomedical Laboratory, . “It is especially serious that in a society so recently marked by a health crisis such as that caused by Covid, the public education system cannot provide an outlet for renewed interest in health and health studies. It is not acceptable, either, that after years of trying to promote vocational training studies, the regional government is incapable of offering the necessary public places. They would have to be prepared for an increase in demand.
It's their job," says Galvín. "One of the excuses recently used by the president of the Community of Madrid is the incredible novelty of this increase in demand. It has caught them by surprise. How would they know how many students would register before the schooling process? It is true that this past academic year (2020-2021) the FP already experienced the largest increase of all teachings, 9.3% more than the previous year. Perhaps that could have given them a clue about the upward trend in Training Professional, and thus adapt the offer to a growing demand," he adds. Another excuse that the union refers to is that referring to those highly employable studies that for different reasons do not arouse as much interest among young people. "The government says that it offers public places that are not covered, and with these cases it challenges the entire system and justifies the cuts. The truth is that neither this nor previous regional governments have done anything to solve this problem when it would have an easy solution: improve targeting young people, offering incentives with lower tuition, or implementing a scholarship system for public studies that are most in demand by the productive sector.
