| Remarks | Although Basque is a minority language our school is located in an area where 90% of the population are native speakers of Basque. There is influence of Spanish but it is not so great as to present a problem. Most pupils come from Basque speaking families. However, in our area most families speak a dialect of Basque and we teach the standard Basque which is what institutions accept as official. This, sometimes is a problem for students and parents. |

| Remarks | In this zone the pupils know the language, but they don't use it so much. Therefore we need more money to continue and improve our basque project, and more language teachers to help us. |
