Institutions for care and education of children - kindergartens
Data on institutions for care and education of children - kindergartens / centres for early childhood development (public and private) are collected with regular annual surveys, with 30 September as reference date.
Data on children in development stage up to 2 years of age, children in development stage between 2 years of age and school age, combined group (of children), children with disabilities, groups of children - centres for early childhood development within kindergartens, groups for pilot programmes, groups for extra-institutional forms of activity and other groups (food and stay-over) are at the level of the institution and refer to the calendar year.
Institutions for care and education of children - kindergartens / centres for early childhood development provide health care, food and daily stay for children in accordance with their development needs up to the age of 6 years, organised into several types of groups.
The groups for children in development stage up to 2 years of age take complete care and have certain educational influence on children up to 2 years of age.
The groups for children in development stage between 2 years of age and school age are systematically engaged in education and upbringing of children up to 6 years of age.
The combined group (of children) is systematically engaged in care, upbringing and education of children from 12 months to 6 years of age.
As children with disabilities are considered children who are: blind or with damaged sight, deaf or hard of hearing, children with speech difficulties, with physical disability, as well as children with personal and behavioural difficulties. The upbringing and education of these children are organised in the framework of the regular groups.
Groups of children - centres for early childhood development in kindergartens cover children in development stage between 3 years of age and school age, and are systematically engaged in upbringing and education of children for up to 3 hours per day, with flexible working hours.
The groups for extra-institutional forms of activity are intended for children from 3 years of age and they organise playing activities, creative workshops, children’s workshops in the fields of culture and art, sport activities, etc.
Other groups (food and stay-over) are groups taking care of the children in primary education before and after the classes are held in the schools where there is no daily stay. These data are not covered in "Total".
