Kicillof specified that it is “an investment of $424 million for renovation, remodeling and expansion of schools and gardens in the district.”
“Through this agreement we are strengthening access to quality education, generating the possibility that wherever they are, everyone can develop and have better opportunities,” he stressed.
The Minister of Education also referred to the issue and noted that “the Kicillof government demonstrates with concrete facts the interest in education in the 135 municipalities of the Province” and said that “we endorse what we say with concrete actions.”
Along these lines, he explained that, “in three years of management, two of which were in the midst of the pandemic, we opened twice as many schools as the previous government in four years.”
“These are objective data from reality,” he said, adding that this year’s Buenos Aires budget “is 11.3% higher than last year’s.”
