VOICED : Inicia en Mexico ciclo escolar con paros del magisterio radical

The new school year in Mexico began with protests and strikes led by a radical faction of the teachers' union in response to educational reforms. In states like Oaxaca and Chiapas, a significant number of schools remained closed, while Guerrero and Michoacán saw higher attendance. The protests aim to defend public, secular, and free education, with strong parental support in Chiapas. The Coordinadora Nacional de Trabajadores de la Educación (CNTE) has been organizing these strikes, opposing teacher evaluations that they believe threaten job security and ignore educational disparities in poorer southern states.
