“The children of the educational institution N°30020 in the Pucará district receive their classes in the courtyard, because their classrooms were declared in a state of emergency” says a teacher while a video shows the children sitting on the floor and leaning on chairs where they have their sheets of paper with drawings.”
The teacher is asking for urgent support with prefabricated classrooms, for which she urges that the documentation be expedited so that the 3 sections of the initial level, which houses 4-year-old children, can be attended to.
Another teacher does the clay crafts class also in the middle of the grass, surrounded by children.
A week ago, parents and teachers marched in protest at the Local Educational Management Unit in Huancayo, where they promised a solution that has not materialized.
ORDER. In letter No. 037 dated June 26, 2024, the director of IE. 30020 José Quispe Ochoa requests immediate attention to the reiterative report on the state of emergency of the school’s infrastructure, which has been declared in emergency since 2011, but 13 years have passed and they have not received a response. In addition, on June 19, they received a visit from Pronied, which verified the state of the classrooms that house children of 3, 4, and 5 years of age at the initial level and the fifth grade classroom and the management, which are in uninhabitable conditions. Despite this, there is no urgency to attend to children who study in danger.
The director of Ugel Huancayo, Walter Oré, said that he would manage prefabricated classrooms or the allocation of resources to rent spaces.
