Education ignores almost seven out of ten substantive proposals made by the School Council of the Balearic Islands (CEIB), the highest consultative and educational participation body, where the different sectors of the educational community are represented. Of the 227 substantive contributions that the CEIB made to the last five decrees analyzed, the Ministry only accepted 71 fully or partially (42 accepted and 29 partially accepted; in two of the five cases, the CEIB had proposed the withdrawal of the entire project.), a total of 31.3%.

The Government intends to modify the functioning of the School Council of the Balearic Islands (CEIB) without prior notification. The CEIB, the highest body for participation of the educational community of the Balearic Islands, has rejected proposals from the Executive on several occasions. The change is to be introduced through an amendment to the decree-law that accelerates strategic projects for the economic transformation of the Balearic Islands, even though the decree has no relation to the educational consultative function. The objective is to reduce the CEIB's deadlines for issuing reports, a key process for it to analyze and make contributions on the regulations and projects of the Ministry of Education. Although, usually, most content proposals are dismissed and those of a formal nature are the ones that are ultimately incorporated.

Pepita Costa (Ibiza, 1967) has been president of the Balearic Islands School Council since June 2021. Her career is linked to defending families' rights and promoting quality public education. Since assuming the presidency, the advisory body has spoken out against controversial measures, such as the creation of single school zones in municipalities and the Linguistic Segregation Plan.
