Spanish term or phrase: asignaturas de libre configuración autonómica - LO/LC
I have seen some helpful answers for this term, but I am specifically trying to distinguish between LO: Libre configuración autonómica/opcionales and LC: Libre configuración autónomica.
This is from a Spanish (Madrid) high school grade certificate, and I understand they are both "elective" subjects, but not sure what is the difference between the two.

Thanks in advance,
MJ

asignaturas de libre configuración autonómica -
Subjects determined by the autonomous regions - LO/LC (lengua oficial/lengua comunitario)


Explanation:
The "bloque de asignaturas de libre configuración autonómica", as the term suggests, are subjects that the regional governments in Spain (known as "Autonomías" or "Comunidades Autónomas") can include in the curriculum of State and subsidised private schools within the framework of the national eduction plan. They include, for example, regional languages in some comunidades (Galicia, the Basque Country, Catalonia...) which, far from being elective, are compulsory in the regions that have them. The education authorities in the autonomous regions establish the curriculum in their respective areas of administration, which must include the minimum teaching requirements established by the State (50% of the scholl day in regions with 2 official languages and 60% elsewhere). The rest are "asignaturas de libre configuración autonómica".
