With regard to the most significant pattern, the chart for the 2023/2024 academic year shows that the number of students enrolled in Batxillerat is remarkably similar to that of students pursuing Intermediate Vocational Training (CFGM).
If PFI students are also taken into account, the combined figure reaches approximately 100,000 learners. This may suggest that, after completing ESO, students are increasingly attracted to a wider range of educational pathways rather than following a single traditional route. It could be the case that many young people are looking for more practical and career-oriented studies that provide a clearer link to the labour market.
Another noticeable feature is that Higher Vocational Training (CFGS) represents the second-largest group. One possible explanation is that a growing number of students view Vocational Education as an attractive alternative to university studies. While a university degree usually requires at least four additional years of study, vocational programmes tend to offer earlier access to work experience through dual training schemes. Consequently, economic considerations may also play a role in students' decisions, although it is difficult to determine the exact reasons from the data alone.
Overall, the graph suggests that educational preferences in Catalonia may be changing. Vocational education appears to be gaining popularity, either as an alternative to Batxillerat or as a pathway pursued after completing it. All in all, it is difficult to draw any definitive conclusions from the data presented, but the figures seem to indicate a growing appreciation of practical and employment-oriented forms of education.
