Qualitative Info

 In Spain there are no schools for minorities but in thoses areas in which a higher percentage of one kind of inmigrants are concentrated this is also reflected in schools. There are some concrete cases in which the percentage of inmigrants or gipsies goes up to 90%. This does not seem, however, to be due to segregation policies. Nevertheless, the ERCI recomends the Spanish Government to revise the policies of admission of minorities in public schools and state subsidized schools in order to avoid these imbalances (Recomendation number 65 of the Fourth Report about Spain ECRI).
