Argentina provincial education reforms

Entities: Federación de Escuelas Cooperativas de la Provincia de Buenos Aires (Feceaba) · Natalia Romero · Lucía Klug · Buenos Aires Province · Eduardo Hardoy

Overview

In late July 2026 Argentine provinces began rolling out a series of education reforms targeting different aspects of schooling. La Pampa announced that financial education will become mandatory in secondary schools, with teacher‑training slated to start in August. A few days later, Buenos Aires Province passed a law creating a regulatory framework for community‑run cooperative schools, establishing a provincial register and a dedicated coordination unit. Simultaneously, Corrientes Province introduced a bill to adopt a protocol for handling mental‑health crises in public administration and state schools, outlining procedures for psychotic episodes, suicidality, acute stress and substance‑withdrawal emergencies. Together these measures illustrate a broader trend of subnational governments in Argentina expanding curricular content and support services in schools.
