Government approves 58,000 euro boost for private kindergarten in Funchal
The Academia da Fantasia Kindergarten will receive a financial boost of 58,196 euros to contribute to staff salaries during the 2025-2026 school year.
The Regional Government has approved a financial boost for a private educational establishment, as part of support for its operation and for families. Resolution of the Regional Government Council No. 808/2026 approves an addendum to the simple contract signed with the company Sector Regra, Lda., responsible for the Academia da Fantasia Kindergarten.
The addendum grants an additional financial contribution that cannot exceed the maximum amount of 58,196.00 € for the 2025-2026 school year. This amount is specifically intended to contribute to the salaries of eligible staff working at the establishment.
The need for the boost arises from changes verified after the start of the school year, particularly regarding the number of children, salary updates, and modifications in family incomes, which affected family allowance brackets and, consequently, the support amounts. The expense will be borne by the regional budget.
