The Catalan government has launched a pilot plan to permanently station Mossos d’Esquadra officers in 13 conflictive secondary schools to prevent youth violence. Interior councillor Núria Parlon defended the measure, but it has drawn widespread rejection from unions, families, directors, and students, who decry cuts to social educators. Only one union supports it.
