School calendar 2025-2026
With the new collective agreement, a minimum of 25% of teaching days can be done at the location decided by the teacher. In addition, for 20% of the total pedagogical days, the content will be determined by the teacher. To this end, the timetable designed by the CRP was retained, which represents good news. In its design, it was attempted to alternate the teaching on different days of the week in order to consider specialists, among others. Marc Infante notes that there is good collaboration with the service center to consider the needs of the teaching staff and respect the collective agreement regarding next year’s school calendar.
