The president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, does not close a battlefront when already opened another, after the Secretary of Education, Mario Delgad or, he contradicted her by saying that the closing of classes has not yet been defined and reaffirming that everything is defined for June 5th to start the holidays.

The head of the Government of Mexico, when being consulted in her customary morning conference on this topic of early closing of classes due to the 2026 World Cup, responded that the decision is under analysis and that nothing is defined yet.

But the head of Education, after finding out of his boss's stance, responded at an event held in Hermosillo, Sonora, that the decision has been made and that officially the students'vacations will begin next June 5th.

Mario Delgado announced on recent Wednesday with fanfare that, after reaching an agreement with all the country's technical councils, it was determined that primary and secondary education students daria, they will end their classes on next June 5 due to the intense heat that has been felt in different areas of the country and also so that they can enjoy the 2026 World Cup, which will start six days later.

But the head of the executive of Mexico said this morning in her customary morning conference that the early closing of classes and the start of vacations is only a proposal after being consultated because of the school calendar readjustment announced by the head of Education, Mario Delgado, highlighting that it still does not have as something official what the last part of the 2025-2026 school calendar will look like.

According to Mario Delgado's plans, the children will have approximately three months of classes, which represents a hard blow to the planning of what s parents who have enrolled their children in paying schools, but above all the misalignment in the activity calendar of each family.

The modification to the school calendar was an initiative generated by the heads of government of the entities that will be worldwide headquarters, such as Clara Brugada from CDMX, Pablo Lemus from Jalisco and Samuel García from Nuevo Leó n, but above all from the main official of the capital city, who doesn't want her government to be exhibited in the failures of the works that were carried out for the celebration of the worldwide fair and that were obsolete.

Brugada fears that the uselessness of the bike lane of one of the main arteries of the Mexican capital will be exhibited, as Calzada de Tlalpan is, where this special circuit for cyclists only aggravates or the road congestion in both directions, but above all it generates chaos on game days at the Banorte Stadium (Azteca) and doesn't want foreign tourism to be aware of this grossing error at the World Cup.

While doctor Sheinbaum put on the table another of the causes to take with tweezers the change in the closing of the school cycle and that's the educational lag or what our country has from the Covid-19 pandemic and now, with the holding of the World Cup, represents a very large weight on the student body.

In this regard, the head of the Mexican executive said that: “It is a proposal that Mario (Delgado) made yesterday that comes from the states of the Republic. The Secretaries of Education of the Republic met as different entities and also at the request of teachers, to have the holidays brought forward, for the World Cup mainly. So this proposal was taken, but there is no defined calendar yet.”

Mario Delgado contradicts his boss

However, upon arrival at an educational event in Hermosillo, Sonora, the Secretary of Education assured that the decision has already been made and that basic education students will leave the classrooms at the beginning of June.

In accordance with a video that circulates on social networks and has been published by several media media, the federal official ratified that the last day of schools for students will be June 5,2026. Originally, the official calendar stipulated the closing of activities for July 15, which represents a cut of almost six weeks.
