The Infantile Schools Colorines, with more than 25 years of experience, have always been a referent in educational level in the first stage of early childhood education because of the quality of its teaching, the magnificent facilities they have, as well as the human value of people That they carry out their work there.
In 2012, the previous government team with the unfavorable vote of the opposition, decided to privatize three of our children's schools, despite their demonstrated smooth operation.
From that moment, the Colorines schools of the District of San Antonio in Torre-Pacheco, of Balsicas and Dolores de Pacheco, happened to be managed indirectly by the company known by the commercial name of Captive.
The concession contract of the service, not without controversy from the first moment, soon generated numerous conflicts with the awarded company that have been accumulating throughout the development of the contract.
A few months after the termination of this contractual relationship in June of this year, the company claims to our City Council a series of expenses that, once audited, are not considered to be from the majority.
In the desire of this company to receive what it claims and accusing of non-payment to the public administration, it has resorted to blackmail with acts that we consider INTOLERABLE, such as playing with children's health by suppressing the heating.
In this case, the City Council proceeded to carry out the appropriate procedures for the start-up of the boilers of the centers from the moment it became aware of this irregularity, and even legal actions are being considered against the company for endangering the integrity Physics of minors.
In the last hours, have been placed by the company awarded posters announcing the imminent closure of these three schools for children, but this City Council has not received any notification about said closure, and may be a measure of pressure.
However, and given the possibility that the company decides to stop this service, and if it officially notifies, the City is already looking for possible solutions.
Finally, we would like to highlight and praise the great work that the educators who work in these kindergartens do.
On several occasions, the concessionaire has opted for non-payment of wages as a measure of pressure against the Administration.
The company counts - according to the information published on its website - with more than 30 centers spread throughout Spain, so it is understood that it must be aware of the administrative procedure, and the times of expenditure control in this type of contracts and Must also have sufficient financial solvency to enter into public contracts with the Administration.
