Overview
- Catalonia’s High Court, which on Monday ordered provisional execution of its September 2025 ruling, left 11 to 14 articles of Decree 91/2024 inapplicable, including provisions that made Catalan and Aranese the routine languages for teaching, administration, family communications, materials, and tests.
- Judges granted the request from the group Asociación por una Escuela Bilingüe in part, but they refused to compel the Education Department to issue a blanket instruction to schools or to file a compliance report.
- The Generalitat said classroom life does not change because the decree was already suspended since July 2024 and unused this school year, and it will appeal while Linguistic Policy chief Francesc Xavier Vila prepares to brief Parliament.
- AEB says schools must now reflect the co‑official use of Spanish and Catalan in their language plans and argues any disciplinary cases against teachers for using Spanish should stop, with the group offering legal support to staff.
- The case advances within a wider legal fight, with Supreme Court appeals underway and unresolved Constitutional Court reviews of 2022 language laws that shape how Catalan and Spanish must both be present in schools.
