translated from Spanish: Marcela Cubillos reproach workers of the Ministry of education: “We have a Minister that’s Socialmedia knows a lot, but education, nothing”

A hard public statement issued workers of the Ministry of education driving Marcela Cubillos, accusing waste of resources, recruitment of consultants paid my llonarios and the dismantling of the General Education Division, among other serious problems.
Officials accused an abandonment of the “guiding role of the Agency and expressed its”utmost concern”about the status of the service.” Therefore reiterate “the President Piñera called to set aside the communicational productions and media education (…)” “Speaks of ‘quality’, ‘merit’, ‘justice in access’ and so much verbal pyrotechnics, without real sense of Education Excellence for all, and all ‘.
There are no austerity the National Association of civil servants of the Ministry of education (Andime) argued that “whatever authority writes and says, falls on immediate contradiction” and put the circular of the Ministry of Finance on policy as an example of austerity.
In the opinion of the workers, these guidelines are met only “for officials who have spent years developing public policies for education for all”, but instead accused a “scandalous waste of resources on promotional tours for the” draft law called the fair admission”.
This is in reference to the 26 communes tour undertaken by the Minister to defend the project which replaces the Bachelet Inclusion Act, and which has already deployed in communities such as Vallenar, Copiapo, Coquimbo, La Serena and Antofagasta, among others.
Cubillos has been posting on social networks each of those meetings with attorneys presenting as affected by the existing school admission system. On Twitter, even defended his new project with the premise that “this time you should listen more to the parents and perhaps less to the ‘experts'”.
But Andime questioned the deployment of the Minister. “We have a Minister who social network knows a lot, but education without discrimination and inclusive, nothing.” Particularly if a project is made with a name like “Fair admission” that the only thing real is that opens it the door to holders to make use and abuse of resources that all Chileans contribute to education, and the Ministry of education fails to meet its oversight role of such resources. Debauchery pure, with the consent of the State”, accused.
Millionaire contracts further questioned by Andime point is the engagement of “advisers with millionaire salaries, giving them the quality of”experts”despite not having experience in education, going on to take the career officer of many real experts in” “education, working for years with degrees and salaries that do not reflect fairly its contribution to the country”.
One of these latter cases was what happened with Jose Palma Vega, head of the Directorate of school education of the Ministry of education, who was dismissed from his post by decision of the Minister, and was instead named Raimundo Larraín Hurtado, son of the historical leader of RN , Carlos Larrain. 
Following settings like this, in Andime comment that “we have been a year lost with the authorities who initiated and which today are replaced by ‘new’ ones”.

According to Andime, the members of the delegation are “newcomers to the Ministry” and “travel expenses and the total cost of this”output”are not yet known, nor less the real importance of the trip to the Chilean education”.
