Specifically, in primary school the participation is around 60% and in secondary school, 50%. This is significant data, given that the consultation, held online, will be key in defining which will be the majority language of instruction. In total, 339,411 families have participated and the result, which the Ministry of Education has not wanted to give yet, will be applied from the 2025-2026 academic year.</p>]]></description>

This is the consequence of what many citizens fear about the consultation on the vehicular language in the classrooms that begins this Tuesday in the Valencian Community and will close on March 4. The initiative has been promoted by the PP and Vox, who argue that the vote will give "freedom" to families and will ensure that the language "is no longer imposed." Arguments that have not convinced the majority of associations of parents, teachers and activists. "They disguise what is a persecution as freedom. What they intend is a linguistic genocide," warns the president of Escola Valenciana, Alexandra Usó.</p>]]></description>
