This is the finding of a report by Jóvenes de Mallorca por la Lengua (Youth of Mallorca for Language), the Balearic Islands Youth Council, and the SEPC (Spanish Society of Catalan Language Students), which highlights the gap between language planning and the reality in classrooms. According to the president of the Consell (Island Council), Pau Emili Muñoz, the study was based on an analysis of 592 subjects and a survey of 300 undergraduate students. While 72% of subjects formally allow the use of Catalan—often because they are defined as mixed-language instruction—only 35% are actually taught entirely in Catalan. However, only 26.7% are truly conducted entirely in the local language.</p>]]></description>
