In order to stimulate school attendance, in 2002 the School Supplies Program was launched, which is addressed to students in public education, primary and secondary, day courses. At the beginning of each school year, packages with school supplies specific to each class are distributed.

The composition of the school supply packages granted to students is established based on the Methodology for applying the provisions of Law no. 126/2002 for the approval of the Government Emergency Ordinance no. 33/2001 regarding the granting of school supplies.

The funding request submitted by the Ministry of National Education, at the beginning of September 2017, through the Operational Programme for Helping Disadvantaged Persons (POAD) 2014-2020, was approved. The decision allows, starting with this school year, the purchase of supplies for preschoolers, respectively the supplementation with backpacks of the school supply packages granted to students in the primary and secondary cycles.
