PODCAST: Back to school with many changes after educational reform
Classes started one week earlier than usual and with no covid restrictions in place after 3 years
Teachers and students are back in school again with significant changes compared to last year, after a recent wave of strikes, protests, and heated debates within the education sector. Press play below to listen or subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts or Spotify.
Alejandra Angulo Alonso is joined by Cristina Tomàs White and Gerard Escaich Folch to discuss the new changes and take a look at the future challenges of the Catalan education system. We visit a local school and speak with teachers and parents about what’s new this academic year.
This week's Catalan phrase is 'Tenir més paciència que un mestre d'escola,' which means
'To be more patient than a school teacher'
