BEIJING, Aug. 6 (Xinhua) — China plans to abolish fees for care and tuition of children in public kindergartens for the last year before entering primary school starting from the fall semester of 2025, according to guidelines released by the State Council on Tuesday.
According to the document, this step is aimed at effectively reducing education costs and improving the quality of educational services in the country.
Children who attend private kindergartens will also have their fees for care and education reduced in line with the reduction in fees in local public preschools.
Financial authorities will provide subsidies to kindergartens to compensate for the reduction in their income due to the new policy.
The document also calls on local authorities to further strengthen support measures for categories such as children from low-income families, orphans and children with disabilities.
Financial and educational departments at all levels should improve fund management and allocate funds in a timely manner and in full to ensure the normal operation of preschool institutions.
The recommendations also noted that China will improve its policy of providing free pre-school education in due course, taking into account factors such as changes in the number of school-age children. -0-
