In order to improve the accessibility and quality of preschool education in Kazakhstan, the system of financing kindergartens has been revised. The essence of the innovation lies in the fact that parents get the right to independently choose a kindergarten for their child and the funds needed for his upbringing go after him, and not directly from the state to the preschool organization. The introduction of such a mechanism is designed to create healthy competition between private and public kindergartens, as their management will have to improve the quality of education and hire professional educators to attract as many kids as possible. Currently, such a mechanism is being piloted in four cities of Kazakhstan – Taraz, Shymkent, Turkestan and Uralsk. In the future, it is planned to scale it to the whole country. In addition, more than 4.2 thousand counseling centers have been opened for parents of children who do not attend preschool organizations. They provide important assistance in the upbringing and development of children, providing equal starting conditions for their education and preparation for school. This year, more than 328,000 parents and children have received methodological and pedagogical support.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/edu/press/news/details/910799
