One of the most interesting debates in recent months has been to extend compulsory education to the age of eighteen. And it seems that society has been divided into different camps on this issue.In my view, extending compulsory education to eighteen is a decision that no one can take lightly. We are talking about the education of future generations and this debate cannot be decided in the basis of political. The new was made public at a very inappropriate moment. In my opinion, politicians, tried to cover the economic crisis affecting Spain and Europe. Compulsory education to eighteen? Great, but in what conditions?
If compulsory education is extended to eighteen, the administration has to provide the necessary human and material resources to carry out this project. Education today suffers a deficit of attention from administrative authorities and governments that make the current situation untenable. Extending compulsory education can not be used as a pretext to cover up the deplorable economic situation that the country is suffering, for example, number of unemployed people.
In conclusion, I define my position with a resounding “no” to the extension of the compulsory education period. There is still much work to do on what we have got.
