- Advocates on the left propose a temporary halt in utilizing childcare centers within the state
The Left political group intends to halt the shutdown of preschools in Saxony because of decreasing kid attendance figures, due to a halt on daycare facilities. A related proposal will be presented during the subsequent state parliament meeting on September 26, as announced by the opposition.
Educators ought to be kept on payroll even if lesser kids require attention, to better enhance the care foundation. The state should maintain its grants at their current rate and raise them suitably for the future, as per the motion. Consequently, the state parliament should instruct both the present and upcoming administrations.
The SPD has also suggested harnessing decreasing kid numbers to improve daycare services. Preschools should stay within the community, and educators should continue their employment, Social Minister Petra Köpping highlighted at the end of July. It's projected that the number of preschoolers will diminish by roughly 15% over the subsequent decade. Education Minister Christian Piwarz (CDU) has also advocated for retaining staff despite decreasing kid numbers, enabling more personalized support.
The SPD's proposal to improve daycare services includes keeping preschools in places like Dresden, ensuring educators continue their employment. The decrease in preschoolers in Dresden and Saxony is projected to be around 15% over the next decade.
