Mazuecos asks Education to take immediate charge of the many deficiencies that the sports pavilion presents and it demands responsibilities for having allowed the beginning of the activity in these installations without that the works are finalized one hundred percent
The councilor of the PSOE in the City of Lorca, María Ángeles Mazuecos has echoed the discontent of parents of IES Ros Giner and Ibáñez Martín due to the significant shortcomings presented by the newly released sports hall, shared use by Both centers.
As he has learned, the Socialist Edil says that the current situation of the pavilion reflects the evident state of "poorly planned, poorly executed and poorly finished" works, and in fact, says they will demand explanations to know who has been responsible for allowing The beginning of the activity in these installations without the works are finished one hundred percent.
On the other hand, the start was delayed by the delay in hiring the concierge staff, and by the "forgetfulness" of not installing a security gate for access.
Among the deficiencies pointed out, it is necessary to donate to the ceiling of the pavilion of a drainage system capable of leading the water to the sewage system.
At present, and because it has not contemplated the endowment of this system, the rainwater that accumulates in the roof of these installations ends up leading irregularly in the sidewalk of the street Maria Agustina.
So much so that the last rains caused problems to transit this street, affecting students and neighbors.
The new works have not served to fulfill a need "insistently claimed" by both educational communities.
This is the creation of three small warehouses for material, specifically one for the IES Ros Giner, another for the IES Ibáñez Martín, and another for use by the City Council;
Facilities that, contrary to the interests of these educational centers, have finally been reduced in a single warehouse, and that will be shared.
As far as the interior of the enclosure, Mazuecos denunciala lack of material and the deficiencies in the conditioning of these facilities "to guarantee its functional use".
Among the deficiencies that the pavilion presents in this sense, it emphasizes the absence of nets that prevent that the sports equipment is trapped, or the lack of termination of some of the lateral walls "by which daily balls and balls are glued".
In addition to the deficiencies presented by the recently inaugurated sports hall, Mazuecos has wanted to denounce the cuts in the subsidy that are received annually for its operation by the Lancet IES.
Applied by the Autonomous Community, and consented by the Councilor responsible for Education in the City of Lorca, which reach 30% discount, in some cases.
The AMPAS of these centers have not yet received "a cent" of the municipal subsidy corresponding to 2016, and that each year is granted by the City of Lorca to hire the cleaning of the exterior of its premises.
As the Socialist mayor has learned, "the delay in making payment of these payments, on the other hand, always insufficient because they always have to be completed with the financial contribution of the quotas of both AMPAS, joins the headaches that Generates in both associations the responsibility of having to take charge of the contracting of these services, without the help of the City of Lorca. "
Situation that has caused the decision not to reapply for this municipal grant.
Therefore, Mazuecos in this sense criticizes the "incoherence" of the Councilor for Education, who refused to help in the cleaning costs of the Adult Education Center because it is not owned by the municipality and now consents and protects that an expense that Corresponds to the Ministry of Education of the Autonomous Community be borne by the parents of the students, one part, and the other the City of Lorca itself.
In this sense, Mazuecos claims that it is about discrimination between educational centers as to who is responsible for the payment of cleanliness and who to pay and requires the City of Lorca to be able to seek a solution together with the Ministry of Education to ensure cleanliness Of the exteriors of these centers without having to take charge, in the first instance, the AMPAS of the centers, and secondly the town hall itself, insisting "it is a matter clearly and exclusively the responsibility of the Autonomous Community, ".
The neglect and the cuts leave the Ros Giner center without the possibility of participating in the program REDPONSABLES
Mazuecos also criticizes the education council, the neglect of the Ros Giner institute in terms of equipment in the auditorium and audiovisuals in the classrooms, we have been asking for these to be completed for two years, since we already thought it was nonsense "We do not understand how there can be technicians who plan a room without seats or digital whiteboards without projectors."
Because despite the insistence and denunciations, everything has been disregarded; indeed, this has meant that the center has not been able to enroll in the REDPONSABLES program, because it does not have a room equipped for 150 students, and this is one of the requirements.
The students of this institute, in this case do not enjoy equal opportunities, because these deficiencies denounced do not allow them to participate equally with other centers, or even the possibility of enrolling, in programs like this one.
