The number of provisional vacancies is distributed in 16 places for 0 years; 127, for P1; and 79 2-year-old Infant places for boys and girls born in 2019. However, “depending on demand, there is the possibility of expanding the initial offer by one more unit for 1-year-olds or P2”.

It is important that families attach all the required documentation in PDF format to the application.
Moreno recalled that “when it comes to filling the places, the requests of families registered in Benidorm with an antiquity of at least 12 uninterrupted months will be attended first. Next, it will be the turn of the families registered for less than a year; and ultimately, if they were left vacant, the requests of families residing in other locations would be attended to ”. Likewise, she has clarified that "if the demand exceeds the supply of places, only families registered in Benidorm will be included in the official waiting list."
The person in charge of Education explained that “due to the special circumstances derived from the pandemic, this year there have been no Open Days organized in municipal nursery schools and the SAPI. Instead, informative videos have been prepared so that families can learn about the facilities and services available to them and that in the next few days will be available in the Education section of the municipal website along with all the detailed information about the process. of admission, characteristics, resources and endowments of each 'escoleta' ”.
The application period will be open until April 30. The provisional lists will be published on May 24, opening a period of three days for claims. The final lists will be published on June 3, which may be claimed until June 8. Each center will set the enrollment date.
