Why can't preschool education be included in compulsory education?
For this provision, this is a "retrogression" of the private education policy, which will affect social forces to enter the field of preschool education. It is necessary to evaluate the influence of prohibiting private kindergartens from listing on capital entering preschool education, and whether allowing private kindergartens to list is harmful or beneficial to the development of preschool education.

China has defined the public welfare nature of preschool education. Therefore, increasing the proportion of public parks and encouraging the construction of non-profit private parks are the fundamental strategies for the development of inclusive preschool education. The goal of the Opinions issued this time is that by 2020, the gross enrollment rate will reach 85%, and the coverage rate of inclusive kindergartens (the proportion of children in public parks and inclusive private parks) will reach 80%.

The construction of Pratt & Whitney Park is not to restrict the development of for-profit private parks. The national policy is to prohibit for-profit private kindergartens from listing, with the aim of preventing for-profit private kindergartens from excessively seeking profits. Simply put, the national policy allows private parks to pursue profits, but if they pursue profits excessively, it will have a negative impact on the self-construction of kindergartens and the inclusiveness of preschool education as a whole.

On the one hand, listed kindergarten groups will expand their scale and volume in pursuit of return on investment. In this process, they may not pay attention to quality, or even reduce the cost of running a school to get higher profits. On the other hand, driven by interests, big capital will enter the field of preschool education, and use its capital advantage to form a monopoly on private preschool education in one place and raise the price of preschool education.
