The Minister of Education, Antoni Vera, and the Rector of the UIB, Jaume Carot, signed the agreement this Monday. According to a statement from the Ministry, these enrichment programs, Stimulation of Mathematical Talent (Estalmado) and MENTORiment, benefit 365 gifted students annually in schools across the archipelago. The four-year agreement includes a government contribution of €216,800 between 2025 and 2028 (27.5% more than the previous agreement) and aims to expand the number of mentoring sessions, increase student participation, and ensure quality and equity. Both programs, managed by the UIB, are initiatives that foster the development of talent and creativity, offering advanced learning opportunities and enriching experiences outside the regular classroom.
