- Can I use the Young Cultural Bonus to buy textbooks this time back to school?
- The deadline for the aid of 400 euros for students is open: requirements and how to apply for it
Last May, the Ministry of Education opened the deadline to request an aid of 400 euros for “aid for students with specific educational support needs”. It is estimated that, for this school year, the aid will benefit nearly 280,000 students throughout Spain for non-university educational stages.
The objective of these 400 euros is to “defray the additional expenses that their families must face”, but the deadline to request them ends on September 20.. It is expected that for the next school year a new call will be opened again, as is the case with other aid and scholarships in the educational field..
These aids are designed for the 2023-2024 school year, and for the levels of Early Childhood, Primary, Compulsory Secondary, Baccalaureate education, Intermediate and Higher Level Training cycles, professional artistic education, Basic Level Vocational Training and training programs for the transition to adulthood.
Until September 20, 2023
The aid of 400 euros can be requested by identifying yourself with a digital certificate on the Ministry of Education website, until Wednesday, September 20. Furthermore, to receive this aid of 400 euros, it will be necessary to meet one of the following situations that prove the specific need to receive “educational support”:
- Disability of at least 33%.
- Severe behavioral or communication and language disorder.
- Autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
- Student with high abilities.

On the other hand, students with disabilities, severe behavioral or communication and language disorders, or autism spectrum disorders may in turn receive one or more direct aid.. These direct aid have different amounts, depending on their nature and the needs of the student..
Thus, these complements (many of which are not compatible with each other) can be for teaching in non-concerted private centers, for intercity transportation, urban transportation, school cafeteria, school residence, weekend transportation, books and teaching materials, pedagogical re-education or language reeducation.
