To this pioneer of a school open to all, see so many children without the slightest knowledge of lack of money was the flame that ignited his interest in founding in 1597 the first free school in Europe. This was the first stone that, over the centuries, helped build one of the pillars of modern society: ensuring that all children have access to free public education. "

An education that does not become second-class residual but quality Education, teaches in values ​​that are the future citizens. Nobody understands that undermine the foundations of a pillar as essential as this. The greatest wealth of a nation is its people and investing in education is investing in the future and invest in the output of the current and devastating economic crisis. No more training of the younger generation, the future will be bleak. Education should stay out of political debate. cuts involving All the same, are sticks in the path of a country in need of more I + D + i to be competitive. "
