An amendment to the School Education Act (2011) made attendance in pre-primary education compulsory for 5-year-olds in 2011, and granted all 4-year-olds and 3-year-olds a right to participate from 2015 and 2017 respectively. Amendments to the School Education Act (2013) also introduced a limit to the fees paid by parents, with earmarked grants from the state to local governments compensating the difference in cost. The legislation aims to fulfil the needs of preschool students by: establishing clubs to support children's social and personal development, if requested by parents and where conditions permit; enabling access to preschool institutions during the summer, especially for those who cannot attend during the regular educational term; and opening free mobile classes, particularly for disadvantaged students in rural areas.
