The unions FSIE Madrid, USO, UGT, and CCOO have decided to intensify their mobilization around the private concerted education sector, which they consider to be marginalized. Under the slogan “Concerted: The Forgotten Staff,” they have called for a series of demonstrations in front of the Ministry of Education of the Community of Madrid to raise awareness of the demands and claims of thousands of workers.
According to the unions, the situation for professionals in this field has worsened due to the administration’s neglectful attitude. They criticize that the promises made by the Minister of Education at the end of the last school year, which included an agreement for partial retirement and coverage of substitutes from day one, have not been fulfilled, labeling these initiatives as mere words without backing.
In light of the lack of dialogue and inaction from the authorities, the unions have organized four demonstrations at the Ministry of Education headquarters located at Calle Alcalá 32. These will take place on key dates: Thursday, September 25, from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM; Thursday, October 30, from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM; Thursday, November 27, from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM; and Thursday, December 18, from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM.
The mobilizations aim to highlight the daily issues faced by educational workers, with an agenda focused on improving their working conditions. Among their main demands are reducing teaching hours, improving salaries for administrative and support staff, restoring rights lost since 2010, and ensuring tuition-free education in non-university stages.
The unions reiterate that workers in the concerted education sector in Madrid “deserve fair treatment and real progress.” They call on all sector personnel to actively participate in the demonstrations, emphasizing that labor dignity is not something requested, but something earned.
