Speaking of the Conselleria de Educación may sound bureaucratic, right? But, believe me, after years of dealing with its paperwork, resolutions and policies, I can assure you that this body is more than just paperwork. Throughout my life, as Pablo Garcia, I have had several encounters -some good, others... not so much- with this institution.
If there is one thing I have learned is that the Conselleria de Educación is not simply an administrative body. It is a key piece of the educational fabric in Spain. And like everything that touches education, its role is fundamental in shaping the future of thousands of people.
In a nutshell, the Conselleria de Educación is the body that in each autonomous community in Spain is responsible for managing, planning and supervising everything related to education. It sounds like a lot of work, doesn't it?. Well, it is. They are in charge of everything from vocational education to university, through primary schools, secondary schools, and they also have competencies in employment and continuing education.
In my experience, the biggest challenge is not just understanding what they do, but how they do it. I'm not going to lie to you, many times the process of interacting with them can be...frustrating. But one thing is clear: they are at the epicenter of any major educational change. For example, digitization of classrooms and the use of new technologies are projects that, without the drive of the Consellerias, would be practically impossible.
If you're wondering, what exactly does the Conselleria de Educación do? Here are some of the main functions, which I assure you have a direct impact on your day-to-day if you are a teacher, student or parent:
I'll be honest, I've had to deal with the Conselleria de Educación on more than one occasion. From scholarship procedures, to claims for grades and school transfers. One of the most memorable episodes was when I was involved in the implementation of technological projects in the classroom. The administrative chaos involved in coordinating with the Conselleria was, at the time, quite exhausting. Yes, friends, that is the reality that is sometimes not told.
But eye, I have also seen how the Conselleria becomes the engine of impressive changes. I remember one time in particular, when a pilot program was launched to integrate tablets and digital whiteboards in classrooms. While the process was not perfect, the vision behind it was transformative. To think that years later, many classrooms in the Valencian Community are now fully digitized, makes me realize how important this institution is.
Something that many people are unaware of is that the Conselleria de Educación also has a key role in fostering employment. And we are not only talking about work within the educational field, but they also manage training programs for the unemployed and promote access to the labor market through occupational training courses.
I have experienced this up close, because I participated in some of these programs when I was starting my career. They were an excellent gateway to the world of work. Here, the Conselleria not only prepares students in the classroom, but is also committed to helping them find their first job.
Another large group that is affected by the management of the Conselleria are the teachers. One of the most controversial issues in recent years has been digitalization. As I mentioned to you earlier, the Conselleria has led major projects to modernize the education system. However, the challenge has been that many teachers, used to more traditional methods, have had to adapt quickly to new technologies. Through specific training and programs, they are trying to make this transition
The Conselleria de Educación has a fundamental role in our lives, although it sometimes seems that its processes are somewhat opaque or slow. Let's not fool ourselves, it is a complex institution that moves the gears of the education system, and without it it would not be possible to move towards a more modern education adapted to the times. As the saying goes, "Rome was not built in a day". But with a little patience, effort and, yes, sometimes a lot of bureaucracy, the work they do in the Conselleria de Educación affects us all and is key to the future of the next generations.
The faculties embrace diverse academic disciplines and fields of study, opening doors to new perspectives and exploring different spheres of wisdom in a constantly evolving world.
