The Argentine government has introduced an extraordinary, one-time additional payment as part of the School Aid program managed by Anses for the 2026 school year, as confirmed by Decree 115/2026. This payment is designed to alleviate the financial burden that families face at the beginning of the school year, ensuring that beneficiaries receive a minimum payment of $85,000 per child. The initiative is particularly significant as it coincides with the increasing economic challenges many families encounter during this period.

This additional support will be disbursed alongside the annual School Aid payment, which is set for March 2026. The government emphasized the necessity of this aid in light of the economic pressures parents face as they prepare for their children’s return to the classroom. This measure reflects the government's commitment to supporting education and family welfare, particularly in times of economic strain, and aims to ensure that all children have the necessary resources for their education from the outset of the school year.

Overall, this extraordinary financial reinforcement is aimed at bolstering the educational framework within Argentina by providing essential support to families during a critical time. It not only addresses immediate financial needs but also underscores the importance of education in the socio-economic stability of the country, thereby positioning education funding as a national priority.
