Teachers in Vega Baja have once again gathered at educational centers to demand improvements in public education and protest against the minimum services for the indefinite strike.

The Assembly of Teachers of Vega Baja has reported that, yesterday, Tuesday, teachers from across the region once again mobilized at the gates of educational centers. The objective of these actions is to demand urgent improvements in public education.
These mobilizations, which have been recurring in recent weeks, reflect the growing discontent of the teaching collective. The main cause is the lack of progress on fundamental issues such as class size reduction, improved working conditions, and sufficient resource allocation to adequately support students.
On this day, the concentrations had a particularly assertive character. They focused on denouncing the minimum services established for the indefinite strike called to begin next Monday. The Assembly of Teachers of Vega Baja considers these minimum services to be abusive and disproportionate, as they significantly limit the fundamental right to strike for teachers.

"The imposition of these minimum services distorts the impact of the call and hinders the visibility of the collective's demands."

The teaching staff reaffirms its commitment to quality public education and announces that it will continue with the planned mobilizations in the coming days. This includes the start of the indefinite strike on Monday, if no significant progress is made in negotiations with the educational administration.
