The newsletter by Diego Núñez Fernández-Shaw. Analysis, context and strategic insight on the stories redefining education.
Education can no longer be explained through pedagogy alone. Employability, regulation, coexistence, data protection, public planning and market transformation — five signals of a system reorganizing under pressure.
February confirmed that education is not in a period of stability but of redefinition. VET regulation, the private sector debate, university employability, teacher wellbeing, digital governance and the mismatch between supply and demand — six signals of a system in full transformation.
The start of the year brings clear signals: subsidized schools lose families to private ones, UPV opens a campus in China, private universities outnumber public ones, Davos bets on education and technology, and Brighton College arrives in Madrid. Five movements defining the course of education.
A year of structural changes: early childhood centers facing demographic decline, higher VET surpassing university, private education growing 91%, foreign capital entering subsidized education, and a new Royal Decree redefining university rules. The year in education, reviewed.
