To the joy of some, or the misfortune of others, September is just around the corner. The end of the summer holidays is approaching and with it the well-known back to school. It is worth wondering what the return to the classroom will be like, as determined by each autonomous community.
Having this calendar at hand will be of the utmost importance in order to establish the order of our economy in the face of the September slope. Above all, for knowing the times to buy school books and the necessary material for the coming year.
