The charge of Education Municipal Socialist Group, Mazuecos Jesus has begun his appearance before the media showing surprise at the statements made yesterday by Councilman Education Consistory in which he said that the course starts in Lorca could qualify of normal.

Mazuecos Fernández has stated that "with these statements, Mr. Alderman should remember that in some primary and secondary schools (Children's CEIP students without the new center Campillo promised, CEIP San Cristobal with sports courts practically unusable, displaced students" Torre Bishop "and Puerto Lumbreras without busing, IES without starting the reconstruction, IES Ramón Arcas students located in four separate buildings with obvious difficulties students and teachers and so on) the situation away as possible from a normal situation. "

The Socialist politician recalled that "the logical consequences that entail cutting measures in education that the Central Government has imposed all Spanish. Seriously impinge They all citizens and, especially, to the lower classes. Locally worsen given the special situation that all citizens suffer Lorca after 11 May last year. "

Lorquino The mayor added that "these negative effects resulting in precarious situations in many families find themselves unable to cope with the costs involved in the beginning of the 2012-2013 school year in both Primary and Secondary Education. In this respect , the Consumers' Association-UCE Murcia has said the cost to be borne by the families will be about 590 euros for children. All this is understandable because of the brutal rise experienced by the VAT applicable to school supplies has risen from 4% to 21%, excluding textbooks. should be noted that the cuts in Education will not grant leave to purchase textbooks for 25,000 students in the Region of Murcia. headlong Grants have 40% since the Ministry reduces its contribution to only one million euros while the autonomous region, presumably, stays in four. "

Mazuecos has clarified that "according to statements Sotoca Advisor, you will be making the effort necessary to maintain proper support for families that have fewer resources and hope that this does not remain an unfulfilled promise more."

"As a result of the above, associations of parents of some centers have launched initiatives such as organizing exchanges or donations. Books also being restored so that families can afford not to have access to these materials, especially in Secondary. Some municipalities have begun to coordinate the calls "municipal banks books" allocating them among schools for students with fewer resources to those who will be provided with books, "he continued.

The Socialist councilor said that "the city of Lorca should be involved in a project of this nature, providing round the new school year for many students Lorca to which would help them gain access to some text books that can not easily purchased themselves. need to engage the city of Lorca municipal aid to the various centers so that they, in turn, acquire lots of suitable textbooks. This would create a stock of books, to remain in force in successive courses school would lower local disbursement subsequent years should only replace the damaged or lost books. Earlier Socialist Municipal Corporations already implemented this idea by giving outstanding results. "

The social responsibility has emphasized that "this measure not only it was in an economic advantage for disadvantaged families, but it generated an educational practice to engage the student and family to take responsibility for the care and maintenance of textbooks received. This measure was replaced by the bond-book, which despite being positive, is not getting the benefits resulting in a total of book banks in the centers; since it is an aid of a dwindling amount and that is not socially fair ".

Jesus ended his appearance Mazuecos stressing that "should have the Municipal School Board and the Associations of Parents and the management teams of schools to take up this initiative and make it happen."
