The original windows in March and April were suspended as a result of the containment measures during the State of Alarm.
The Junta has now established new windows for new admission applications or continued admission applications for the academic year 2020/2021 for the following education facilities.
For the first cycle of infant education (under 3 years old), including the application for ‘ayuda’ (a discount on the price of socio-educational care and school canteen services) to increase the level of attendance at this first cycle of education, the window to reserve a place for children also registered at the same school this year, is from 18 -25 May, both inclusive. For new admission applications from 26/5 to 10/6, including the application for ‘ayuda’ as mentioned above, both dates inclusive.
For the second cycle of infant education, primary education, special education, compulsory secondary education (ESO) and high school (Bachillerato) only one window for admission applications, from 18 May to 1 June, both inclusive. Note from CAB: it appears that schools maintain the window above for new admission applications, but will process those for children already enrolled this current schoolyear either in June or July, so please check with your child’s school to make sure.
You can either pick up forms from the school, download them or file the application online.
Likewise for art schools, music schools, dance schools etc. The same window is also valid for students in official language schools, to study the special regime language courses and the refresher courses, improvement and specialization of language skills.
Applications for admission to update, improve and specialise language skills courses for the 2020/2021 academic year will be from June 8 to 18, 2020, both inclusive.
The enrollment cancellation procedure for the 2019/2020 academic year will be resumed in the special regime language studies, establishing a deadline for submitting applications from May 18, 2020 until the day before the final evaluation of the students.
The initial classification tests for admission of students to the Official Language Schools of the Autonomous Community of Andalusia, may be carried out in person or telematically, as determined by the person who manages the centre and depending on the means available to them and the situation of the admitted students who have requested them.
The Ministry responsible for education is empowered to establish the dates of the ordinary and extraordinary calls for the year 2020 of the specific certification tests for levels Intermediate B1, Intermediate B2 and Advanced C1 in the languages German, Arabic, Spanish as a foreign language, French, English, Italian and Portuguese.
