grant-maintained / direct-grant school in BrE; Fed. government-funded public school in AmE Explanation: Whilst Ecuador seems to be a newsworthy country these days / every day, there is not much point leaving the original Spanish title when it is unlikely to make much sense either to many or most English speakers or non-Ecuadorian, Spanish/ Hispanic readers, though IMO might have been an answer to this question : www.proz.com/kudoz/english-to-spanish/government-politics/1... Otherwise, the explanation of the term rang with me, from UK public > private boarding school library research for a British-English essay, loud 'Swinging 1960s' direct-grant and grant-maintained bells from the UK. 'Grant-maintained schools or GM schools were state schools in England and Wales between 1988 and 1998 that had opted out of local government control, being funded directly by a *grant from central government*. Some of these schools had selective admissions procedures. .. Not to be confused with direct grant grammar schools, a type of selective secondary school in England and Wales between 1945 and 1976 but -> direct-grant school: a private secondary school that receives a direct grant from the ministry of education and in return binds itself to obey certain conditions with reference to admission of pupils.' Compare and contrast Florida etc. US Charter Schools, though ProZ colleagues on the spot may care to elaborate, elucidate and expand thereon: 'Charter schools are public schools that operate under a *performance contract*, or a “charter” which frees them from many regulations created for traditional public schools while holding them accountable for academic and financial results.' Example sentence(s):

peer agreement (net): +1private school with state-funded financial support Explanation: According to European Union terminology: entidad fiscomisional > private school with state-funded financial support https://iate.europa.eu/search/result/1708560684005/1 It may also be translated into "state-funded private school" etc. Examples of use: Education trade unions representing state-subsidised private education in France have made history by uniting to put forward their demands and call for “decent and peaceful working conditions for all employees”, as “a matter of survival and dignity”. (…) “There is clearly a lack of familiarity, on the part of the Ministry, with how private schools with state-funded financial support work”. https://www.ei-ie.org/en/item/22893:france-private-education... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2024-02-22 00:21:35 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Public schools and concertadas (state-subsidised private schools) receive different levels of government funding and are subject to certain curriculum requirements - most notably that the main language of instruction is Catalan. https://www.goodschoolsguide.co.uk/international/spain/barce... |
