Besides: approving qualifications in language and mathematics; a minimum performance level of II, in at least two areas of Personal development and Social, and a minimum performance level of II, in at least two clubs of Curricular autonomy.
Under the new agreement, as already mentioned, only set as requirement “have completed the corresponding degree”; and removes the point, saying that “the student may be retained in second grade only once, when the teacher determines that it failed to expected learning native language and/or math”.
With regard to preschool in the previous agreement said that the only requirement was to meet at least 80% attendance. In the new, also just studying.

-General average of 6 in the rest of the subjects in the fields of education

-A minimum performance level of II, in at least two areas of Personal development and Social

The new agreement sets as requirements:
