SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, March 19. (EUROPE PRESS) –
The national secretary general of the Canarian-PNC Coalition, Fernando Clavijo, has appealed to the need to put public education at the center of the system because “in education are the pillars on which the Canary Islands of the future sit and will sit” and has demanded to make an effort to resume the Social Pact and for Education in the Islands.
In a work meeting with teachers, education professionals and experts held in La Laguna, in which the situation of education in the Islands in all areas was analyzed, Fernando Clavijo pointed to VT “as one of the cornerstones of an educational system that must be less static and know how to anticipate opportunities or create them but never let them pass”.
The nationalist leader pointed out that it is not only a matter of getting the most out of the talent of young Canarians, but of redirecting it so that it has repercussions on the development of the Islands and so that this talent does not end up going abroad.
In this context, he made an X-ray of an educational system conditioned by the fragmentation of the territory that prevents the homogenization of the training offer in all the Islands and often makes access difficult. For this reason, Clavijo proposed extending access to VET in all the Islands through virtual reality R&D&i, which is known as virtual reality for industry 4.0, being applied mainly to the training of professionals, allowing students the possibility of training to carry out practices autonomously and making it possible to extend the Training
PROFESSIONAL TO ALL THE ISLANDS.
Likewise, he referred to the role of public universities in the development of the Canary Islands and pointed to the need to continue adapting it to new challenges and needs: “We must work side by side with our university centers to improve the offer of public universities and make it more attractive to build together a society better prepared to face the economic, social and cultural challenges that the Canary Islands will have to face in the medium and long term”.
Fernando Clavijo also pointed to teachers as “the cornerstone of the educational system” and took the opportunity to recognize the “titanic” work they have done “with very little help from the Administration during the pandemic.” In the same way, he exposed the need to continue paying attention to the use of information technologies and the learning of foreign languages and to work in a new culture of human resources with pedagogical and administrative support.
The promotion of education from 0 to 3 years old is, among many others, one of the priorities set by Canarian nationalists to favor the social and educational development of students from an early age and a reconciliation of real work and family life and that were debated today in this new appointment of ‘The Canary Islands needs you’.
With today’s meeting, the nationalists continue with the meetings with professionals, experts, entities, associations of the Islands in areas such as health, social rights, internationalization of the economy, education, among others. An open dialogue that has allowed debate, consensus and add proposals to the document in which the nationalists work together with the Canarian society and that they will announce next summer.
