Overview

  • The Conselleria de Educación has published a new orientative framework for vehicular language teaching, now accessible on the Servicio de Educación Plurilingüe website.
  • Mathematics will be taught exclusively in Spanish to support metacognitive development, while Conocimiento del Medio will be taught in Valencian to emphasize local linguistic richness.
  • Schools retain autonomy to finalize their language programs, with oversight by the Education Inspection to ensure compliance with legal proportions and guidelines.
  • The framework includes examples for optimizing bookbank management and enabling flexible student groupings across linguistic bases.
  • New provisions for Secondary Education allow curricular diversification programs to be attended by students from both language bases, fostering inclusivity.
