The education system in the Balearic Islands has grown moderately in the last five academic years, but the real change is not so much in the volume of students as in their composition, where a significant increase in late admissions is observed. Between the 2021-2022 and 2025-2026 academic years, global enrollment has gone from 226,735 to 237,867 students (+11,132, +4.9%). In parallel, students with Special Educational Support Needs (NESE) have increased from 52,680 to 57,725 (+5,045, +9.6%), an increase that reflects growing diversity within classrooms.

A committee of experts from various autonomous communities has participated in the technical review of the 2011 inclusive education decree with the aim of elaborating a new regulation adapted to current reality. The joint work has made it possible to define a battery of improvement proposals that will be translated into a draft decree, which the Government plans to submit for public exhibition soon.
