Utrecht preschool from 2027 for all children aged two and over, and free in Kanaleneiland

English · translation

From January 1, 2027, all children in Utrecht will be able to attend preschool from the age of two. In the Kanaleneiland district, preschool will also be free. The Municipality of Utrecht (the local government) has made this decision.

Preschool helps children get off to a good start in primary school. If more children attend preschool, they are less likely to fall behind at school, and there will be greater equality between the districts.
