The Ministry of Education (Mineduc) has promoted an extensive campaign throughout the country on the “voluntary” return to face-to-face classes for this March 1, to which the College of Teachers has repeatedly responded that “the conditions are not there” to return to the classroom.
On Monday, the Mineduc reinforced its message during the start of vaccination of education workers.
However, while he valued the inoculation, from the union they affirmed that the campaign is one more element to evaluate the reopening from schools.
The fundamental thing, they insisted on the magisterium, is that the pandemic is under control.
The vaccination schedule for education officials was advanced, starting on Monday with people over 60 years old throughout the national territory, instead of Monday 22 as was established.
During an activity at the Salvador Sanfuentes School in the Santiago commune, the Minister of Health, Enrique Paris, pointed out that the strategy seeks to protect school communities.

Fernando Paredes, president of the group and communal head of Natales, told La Radio that, after a meeting with Minister Figueroa, the school communities can be calm, because the return to face-to-face on March 1 is still voluntary.
This point is also fundamental for the College of Teachers, which insisted that fathers, mothers and attorneys have the final decision regarding whether or not their sons or daughters will attend face-to-face classes.
