The education authorities in Andalucía have announced that they will no longer use public money to fund single-sex colleges in the region. There are 11 such centres which are now expected to go private.
The law change has been published in the regional Official Bulletin and gives a month for centres to apply for public funding. Most of the single sex colleges in Andalucía are religious centres run by the Opus Dei organization.
