Equal opportunities

Begoña Pedrosa, Education Counsellor,points out that ensuring free access from early years is not just a social measure, "but a strategic commitment to equality."  

In his words, children's schools are an "essential tool" to compensate for inequalities from the beginning of the educational career. "This service not only helps children at a crucial stage in their development, but also directly helps families in their reconciliation," he added.
