Volodymyr Groysman: Kindergarten that is outfitted with the latest equipment, it is kick-off for investments in education
The construction of
kindergartens using the latest technologies
and modern equipment is the
starting point for investments in quality education
and child development. Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman issued such a statement, while inspecting
the reconstruction of preschool educational
institution №179 in Kyiv. Previously in this building
there was an authority for
providing social services and now
the institution restores its work
for its intended
purpose.
Having examined the
progress of repair work, the
Prime Minister emphasized that there would be
no more cases
of reshaping of kindergartens to other institutions
and all preschool
facilities in Kyiv and regions
should resume work as preschool
educational institutions. «This direction,
along with the construction of new kindergartens are in line with the
government's goal of eliminating queues in child
care centres by 2020», stressed Volodymyr Groysman.
He placed a special
emphasis to the fact that
there exist necessary financial resources due to
the decentralization process and implementation
of the projects
of the State
Fund for Regional Development. Effective use of
funds allowed only for the
first half of the year
to reduce the shortage of
places in kindergartens across the country by
13 thousand - to 65 thousand.
"We will
make every single effort to
ensure that children attend normal kindergartens. The latest technologies,
modern materials (during the construction
of kindergartens) - this will be
a big plus for children development
as well as
for enhancement of the education
sector", Volodymyr Groysman accentuated.
