Abstract

In Search of Consensus in Education:The Experience of the LOESalto de línea Salto de línea The changes introduced in the last decade in educational legislation in Spain gave rise to the extension of a growing demand of some sort of social or political agreement in order to avoid continuous reorientation of the educational policy. During the process of the drawing and passing of the new Education Act (LOE), that demand resulted in several efforts made by different agents in search of consensus. This paper presents and analyzes the process going from April 2004 to April 2006, starting by the educational debate opened by the Ministry of Education and Science and ending with the parliamentary negotiations prior to the passing of the new Act.
