Adoración Peñas, Councilor of the Left United Greens in the city of Lorca, will request through a motion that will present in the plenary this September, the implementation of out-of-school support programs for primary school students in the northern districts and south of the city center.

Due to the great extent of our municipal term, many of our districts present a great distance from the city that greatly hinders access to certain services.

This is especially true for families with school-age children, who have to travel more than considerable distances to offer their children an extra-curricular activity or any other service that can be accessed without further problems by a child in the town or of some nearest hamlet.

After conducting a survey by different educational centers in the farthest districts of Lorca, we have detected the need to establish a mechanism through which the City Council, through the Department of Education, undertake to guarantee families an additional aid to the children can receive as much extracurricular support as other activities (computer science, English, etc.) that are fundamental in the current educational system and can not be afforded by an additional cost to the service.

In a context of humble economies, infrastructure deficits and added obstacles, a project in which, through monitors, could be used as support and promotion for the primary students of the aforementioned districts, would be a revulsion for territories threatened by the phantom of depopulation and in need of social, educational, cultural investments, etc., by the local administration.

Therefore, to correct these educational deficits, the motion will have the following agreements:

The municipality of Lorca, through the technicians of the Department of Education and with the necessary collaboration of the FAMPA and the AMPAS of the districts of Coy, Doña Inés, Avilés, La Paca, Zarzadilla de Totana, Zarcilla de Ramos, Morata , Ramonete, La Escucha and Almendricos, will draft a project of attention to the primary students of the aforementioned districts during non-school hours, in order to meet needs for out-of-school support and curricular academic content.

The drafting of the project will include the hiring of monitors to offer a minimum of 2 hours per week per student in each hamlet.

The City of Lorca, through the technicians of the Department of Education, will estimate the cost of the project and reserve the necessary budgetary appropriation for the fiscal year 2018.

The municipality of Lorca undertakes to start the activity as soon as possible in order to start it during the first quarter of the school year just started.
