The Legislative Background of Preschool Education Law
In recent years, China's preschool education resources have expanded rapidly. In 20 17, there were nearly 255,000 kindergartens in China, with 46 million children in the kindergartens. According to the Third Action Plan for Preschool Education in China, by 2020, a public service system for preschool education with wide coverage, basic guarantee and quality will be basically established, and the gross enrollment rate of preschool education in the country will increase from 75% to 85%.
There are some problems in preschool education in China, such as insufficient number of teachers, low level, insufficient inclusive kindergartens, lack of funding guarantee and cost sharing mechanism, loopholes and weak links in management and safety, and the concept of preschool education needs to be further changed.
In view of the problems faced by the development of preschool education, all walks of life have widely called for the introduction of a law specifically for preschool education to ensure capital investment, the construction of teachers and management norms.
