By 2030, preschool education coverage in Kyrgyzstan is expected to reach 80 percent, Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers of Kyrgyzstan Adylbek Kasymaliev stated during a session of the Zhogorku Kenesh.
According to him, the population of Kyrgyzstan has exceeded 7 million, of whom 257,000 children currently attend preschool institutions.
«If in 2020 only 22 percent of children attended kindergartens, by 2025 this figure has risen to 50 percent — double the previous level, which is a positive indicator. By 2030, we aim to increase this figure to 80 percent. To achieve this, we must build many new kindergartens each year,» Cabinet Chairman added.
