Abstract

The importance of the richness of the linguistic and cultural diversity present in the European Union cannot be doubted; hence the insistence that the knowledge of languages is an essential element in the personal and professional development of all citizens. Consequently, to this day, bilingualism is an indispensable and compulsory educational offer in all the countries that make up the European space. As a result, the Castilla-La Mancha Ministry of Education, like the rest of the regions of Spain, bets on this type of education not only to train their students linguistically but also to transmit content. The objective of this contribution is to analyze the existing bilingual programmes in the Castilla-La Mancha region and reflect on their incidence in each of its provinces. To do this, a comparative casuistic analysis will be carried out by bilingual programs, language combinations and number of active programs. The results will show possible causes before the unequal representation and presence of bilingual programmes in Castilla-La Mancha and will expose what the pending bets that the regional administration must face are.
