Tutoring and complementary activities
Starting in 2026, each grade will have a Learning Support Tutoring session, conceived as a weekly space to reinforce priority content. These tutoring sessions will allow for addressing specific difficulties in small groups and offering more personalized opportunities, integrating into the new pedagogical structure. Institutional activities will also be promoted for students and families, including science, technology, art, and movement fairs to showcase learning processes.
The regulations promote a deep renewal of the system and organize the changes based on a comprehensive transformation built on four central pillars. The first is mandatory institutional updating, which requires reviewing the PEI and redefining the PMI 2026 to adapt them to the new curricular requirements. The second is a new curriculum design focused on essential skills, reorganizing learning to prioritize reading, writing, speaking, problem-solving, and digital competencies.
The third establishes more pedagogical time and a new schedule distribution, setting between 25 and 30 clock hours per week and strengthening the subjects Language, Mathematics, Science, and tutoring. The fourth is the strengthening of the Single School Day (JUE), which incorporates 50-minute modules, integrated projects, fairs, and STEAM experiences. Each pillar structures progressive changes that reorganize spaces, increase the hourly load, and promote more comprehensive institutional practices.
The Province indicated that each institution may decide until June 30, 2026, whether it wishes to apply as a Pioneer School within this new implementation process. To support the transition, the Ministry of Education will provide a support plan with pedagogical guidance, ongoing teacher training, technical assistance, connectivity, and academic resources. According to the educational authority, these measures seek to consolidate a "deep renewal of the educational system, with more school time, updated content, systematic tutoring, more technology in classrooms, and interdisciplinary projects."
