Alumnos con cada vez más lagunas
March 1, 2026

  • Education in Spain faces challenges, with an increase in students having academic deficiencies by the time they reach secondary education.
  • The percentage of secondary students with outstanding subjects from the previous year has risen to 27%, a five-point increase in five years.
  • The Celáa Law has allowed students to move forward with no limit of failures, contributing to knowledge deficits.
  • To incorrect measures is added the government's inability to approve educational policies that do not respond to their partner's interests.

Conclusion: Education in Spain needs a comprehensive reform, aimed at elevating the student level and rewarding effort, rather than allowing progression without the acquisition of basic knowledge.
