Naidenoff: “We need to work together”
On the occasion, the Minister of Education, Sofía Naidenoff, valued the participation of the representatives of the UEPGP, highlighting that this space for meeting and exchanging ideas and information is important. “We work with the sense of belonging that education must have and the respect that private education must have within the system, of being part and working together, respecting the specificity,” he stated. For this reason, he pointed out: “We have the need to work together, because we learn from you, in the fact that if there are favorable classroom practices, it is necessary to transmit them,” pointing out that there are around 365 private units that offer educational services in the province. .
As part of the speaker panels, Minister Naidenoff spoke about “Provincial educational policy.”
““We have a little more than 30% of the schools in the country”
For his part, the national director of Public Education of Private Management, Patricio Barber Soler, pointed out that its direction now depends on the Undersecretary of Public Policy and Innovation; “This seems like a minor change, but it is fundamental when thinking about the importance of private management.” “We are a system that as a whole has a little more than 30% of the country’s schools, more than 35% of the students, and we had stopped being present in the discussion of public policy at the national level,” said the national official. . He stressed that “this allows private management to play a role in the political discussion of the educational system that we want, and that is a fundamental role.”
“It is called public management of private management, and it is public not because it belongs to the State, but because it defends the common good, which is the education of the citizen. The citizen is made up of both the State and the civil associations that have decided to group together and, under the approval and supervision of the State, offer quality education,” said Barber Soler.
“Strengthen construction from private management”
Meanwhile, the director of Public Education of Private Management of the Province, Gustavo Ereño, thanked the presence of all the representatives of the educational units of the province and said that “this meeting is to strengthen the construction from private management of the entire provincial educational system with the advances that could be achieved during the year.” As well as, “recognize from the ministry the multiplicity that these institutions have, reconstruct from the provincial educational system this integration, this recognition of the ideologies, the characteristics and particularities of each of the units and also be able to navigate these aspects and particularities that It has to do with our management, because the most important purpose is what happens in the classroom, so we must build a quality and efficient, equitable educational system that includes and forms true citizens,” said Ereño.
