More than 70 family associations and 300 teachers support the Son Sardina parents against Miquel Roldán.
On Monday, the Joint Committee will be held between the unions and the Administration, which, this time, will authorize the psychological evaluation.
PalmA total of 75 families and more than 300 teachers from all over Mallorca have publicly shown their support for the families of the CEIP Maria Antònia Salvà in Son Sardina, who have denounced the reinstatement of a substitute teacher convicted of repeatedly harassing a minor, Miquel Roldán, to the school, and will not send their children to school.
This support has been articulated through the adhesion to the manifesto promoted by FAPA Mallorca, which demands that the Ministry of Education and the competent authorities immediately remove the teacher from any educational center where minors are present, as well as the implementation of legal reforms so that people convicted of harassing minors can be held accountable.
The families have expressed their "deep concern for the children's physical and emotional safety" and have described the situation as "unacceptable," both because of the judicial precedent and the teacher's subsequent behavior, who, they claim, continues to harass former students through social media and attempt to maintain contact with them in educational settings.
Two years of conflict
The case is not isolated. Last year, Miquel Roldán had already been assigned to the Gabriel Janer Manila Primary School in Pla de na Tesa, the same school where he had taught the victim in the case for which he was tried and convicted. This recurrence has generated growing alarm in the educational community, especially due to the lack of legal mechanisms that prevent people convicted of these types of crimes from continuing to teach.
Sources from FAPA Mallorca emphasize that this case "affects us all" and call on institutions to prioritize child protection within the educational sphere. "We demand that our children have a safe environment that generates trust and is free from any risk to their well-being," the manifesto concludes. The impact of the case has highlighted existing legal loopholes and opened an urgent debate on the need to review hiring protocols and suitability criteria for teaching in cases of crimes involving minors. Monday The Joint Committee between the unions and the Administration will be established. This time, the government will authorize Roldán's psychological evaluation. An attempt was made in February, but the unions prevented it.
