Overview
- Ustec, CGT, Intersindical and Professors de Secundària reported 42,965 participants in their consultation, roughly half the teaching workforce.
- Of those who voted, 94.9% rejected the agreement and 2,185 supported it, according to figures released on March 13.
- The opposing unions confirmed a coordinated territorial strike from March 16 to 20, with a commitment to participate tied to a 'no' vote; the SEPC student union also joined the call.
- The signed four-year pact with CCOO and UGT includes a 30% rise in the regional pay supplement, €50 per night for school trips, initial ESO class-size reductions in high-complexity schools and added inclusive education resources, with an estimated cost of €2 billion.
- Organizers say the vote used a system linked to teachers’ xtec emails to ensure one response per worker, while they demand the Education Department return to negotiations and address the financing of the package.
