Overview
- Friday's summit at the Palau de la Generalitat created two formal spaces: a political-consultative track linked to the Consell d'Educació for party oversight and an economic track to plan a multi-legislature path to 6% of GDP for education.
- The political-consultative track will have Joan Manuel del Pozo, president of the Consell d'Educació, meet periodically with party-designated representatives to monitor the listening and deliberation process.
- Unions, led by Ustec, said they were not properly informed, pressed for a dedicated negotiation table, and demanded a four-year timetable with guaranteed funding earmarked for public education.
- Vox did not attend the summit while Aliança Catalana took part for the first time, and the consellera Esther Niubó declared the Catalan-language model non-negotiable.
- Next steps include a sectoral table scheduled for the coming week and recurring meetings to monitor progress with the government stressing the 6% target will be reached progressively over more than one legislature and that short-term measures on literacy, teacher training and AI for under-14s will continue.
