Listening to teachers

Teachers in Madrid have gone on strike, joining those in Cataluña and the Comunidad Valenciana, in protest at common grievances across much of Spain. On the first day of the strike, nearly half of teachers participated, according to the Consejería de Educación, while unions claim the figure is 70%. The strike in Madrid is also motivated by concerns over the region's education policy, which has contributed to a rapid decline in public education.
