The document outlines a linguistic normalization plan that incorporates three educational programs: Teaching through Valencian, Linguistic Immersion, and Valencian Progressive Incorporation, each tailored to specific student needs and linguistic contexts. The plan emphasizes the importance of bilingual and multilingual education within the Valencian region, addressing the development of distinct educational objectives and methodologies for different schools. Additionally, it establishes guidelines for program design, implementation, and the teaching of languages according to the sociolinguistic landscape of the area.
