Spain approved €28,723,818 in 2026 funding for the Inclusive Education territorial cooperation program supported by FSE+. The program will fund regional measures from September 2026 to August 2027.
What Changed?
The resolution set funding and criteria for inclusive education actions, including additional human resources, co-teaching, Universal Design for Learning approaches, specialist support, collaboration between special and ordinary schools, teacher training and prevention or early detection measures.
Old System vs New System
Inclusive education was already a national and regional policy priority, but the 2026 FSE+ territorial funding package and program requirements had not yet been formally distributed.
Autonomous communities will use the approved funds for eligible inclusive education measures in participating schools during the 2026-2027 execution period.
Who Is Affected?
Student Impact
Students who need additional support may benefit from more inclusive classroom practices, specialist resources and improved support in ordinary school settings.
Parent / Family Impact
Families of students with support needs should monitor regional and school-level information about inclusive resources, support measures and participation opportunities.
School / Institution Impact
Schools receiving support will need to implement inclusive project lines, coordinate staff, document activities and participate in monitoring or evaluation processes.
Teacher / Staff Impact
Teachers may receive training and work with additional support staff, co-teaching models, specialist teams and inclusive classroom planning tools.
