More resources for early support services in public childcare centres

The education authority has amended the funding rules for early childhood support services in the public institutions of the Balearic Islands and increased the budget allocated for this purpose.

The decision amends a previous administrative order on the funding of the network of public institutions for the first stage of care. At its core it is about enhancing the financing for the so‑called early pedagogical care services.

The available money will not be used uniformly but is divided into two areas. One part is intended for eligible expenses per child with special educational needs and may be spent either on staff or on materials. Another, larger allocation is expressly intended for personnel costs when children are particularly severely affected and require specific support; a mandated report from the competent EAP is required for this. The exact ceilings and conditions are set out in the corresponding call for proposals.

The Official Gazette had previously published both the determination of the module amounts and the actual call for proposals; the change now adopted makes an adjustment to those provisions. If you work in a public early childhood institution or care for a child with special support needs, this decision has direct effects on the funds available and their earmarking.
