The Spanish Constitution recognizes the right of all citizens to education through the implementation of a general education programme which requires the participation of all the affected sectors.

Furthermore, it recognizes the autonomy of universities, the right to create educational centres and the need for the Administrations to promote and manage access to culture and sport.
