These places will be distributed as follows: Cancelada 74, Calancha 35, El Mar 102, Los Pitufos 115 and El Nido 51 Applications may be submitted by families with children aged between 16 weeks and 3 years, that is, born in the years 2024, 2023 and 2022.

Interested persons can download the application forms at https://www.juntadeandalucia.es/educacion/portales/en/web/escolarizacion/0-a-3-anos (forms – Annex II) and can also be picked up at the Town Hall (Avenida Juan Carlos I, 40). Once completed, along with the requested documentation, they can be delivered by the virtual secretariat of the Junta de Andalucía or in City Hall, by appointment that can be obtained on the page of the City of Estepona (Cita previa-Inscripción Escuelas Infantiles) or in person. The deadline for submission of applications for new admissions will be active until April 30.

The Municipal Nursery Schools have a schedule of socio-educational attention from 07.30 to 17.00 hours, offering morning class and lunchroom service. In addition, families can also submit, together with the application for new admission, the application for aid for the subsidy of services.

The nursery schools develop their activities through projects. Throughout the school year, the Family School activity is carried out, which can be attended by parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, and other people who have a close relationship with the children. For several years now, English has been introduced in the classrooms. The City Council also offers a psychological consultation service to parents who may need it, as well as to detect possible deficits in the development of children.
