Plan for full-time extension and canteens

Plan for the extension of full-time (Mission 4, Component 1, Investment 1.2)

The Recovery and Resilience Plan finances the extension of school time in order to increase the educational offer of schools and make them open to the territory beyond school hours. 

The measure envisages the construction or renovation of canteen spaces for at least 1 000 structures to allow for the extension of school time. 

Extended schooling hours are expected to have a positive impact on the fight against early school leaving.

This investment is financed by the Recovery and Resilience plan with EUR 1 billion.
