Public high school teachers across the country will strike on Thursday, organized by the Fenapes union federation. The decision follows confirmation that the education budget will not be increased, relying instead on internal reallocations of existing funds. Fenapes aims to challenge the “zero-spending” policy currently in place regarding the national budget allocation process. Union leaders expressed disappointment with the lack of new funding, arguing it hinders quality education. The strike intends to pressure the government to reconsider its financial approach to public schools. This nationwide action signals growing discontent among educators regarding resource limitations. The union hopes to disrupt the current Rendición (budget review) process with this demonstration.
