Here’s the translation into American English:
Santillana and Cambridge University Press & Assessment have formalized an innovative collaboration that will transform English language teaching in public schools in Spain. This agreement aims to democratize access to high-quality English learning, ensuring that all students, regardless of their socioeconomic background, can acquire language skills that align with international standards.
The alliance combines Santillana’s strong pedagogical expertise with the global recognition and innovation of Cambridge. Together, they are committed to developing educational materials tailored to the specific needs of public classrooms, ranging from Early Childhood Education to High School. These resources will not only strengthen students’ language skills but will also incorporate assessment as an essential part of the learning process.
The signing of this agreement comes at a key moment, as the PISA test will include a global English assessment for the first time in 2025, in collaboration with Cambridge and the OECD. This milestone highlights the importance of the initiative, which seeks to prepare Spanish students for an increasingly interconnected world.
Alejandro Castex, General Director of Sanoma Spain, emphasized Santillana’s commitment to educational equity, stating, “We want every student, regardless of their background, to have the same opportunities for the future. This partnership is a decisive step toward achieving that.” AIDA García, General Director of Cambridge University Press & Assessment in Spain, highlighted the social impact of the project, asserting that they will bring a piece of Cambridge to every corner of Spain, providing tools that empower both teachers and students.
This agreement also reinforces the role of teachers in public education, addressing one of the major educational challenges: diversity in classrooms. With an inclusive and demanding approach, Santillana and Cambridge are redefining English teaching in Spain, establishing a new paradigm in public education.
