Andalusia Rebuts Sánchez Over Montefrío Vocational Course Claim

Regional officials state the public landscaping program in Montefrío remains free, now offered biennially with other provincial options available.

Overview

  • Pedro Sánchez said the higher-level vocational course in landscaping and rural environment in Montefrío no longer exists and that the only alternative is a private option costing about €2,500 a year in Granada.
  • The Junta de Andalucía rejected the assertion and said the public program continues at the Montefrío center at no cost to students.
  • Regional officials said the cycle was launched in 2022–2023 and shifted to a biennial format to concentrate demand and use resources efficiently.
  • The delegation acknowledged very low initial enrollment in Montefrío but said the course remains active under the revised schedule.
  • Authorities noted two additional public centers in the province offering landscaping studies, located in Motril and Cogollos Vega.
