SamenvattingChildren in Poland begin their compulsory schooling at the beginning of the school year when they attain the age of 7. There is no compulsory pre-school education for children under 5, but local authorities have taken responsiblity for running early childhood education programmes. However, faced with a difficult economic situation after the political changes of 1989, many local authorities closed them down without providing an alternative. The situation is especially serious in rural areas. To improve the situation, since 2003 the Comenius Foundation, with support from the Bernard van Leer Foundation, has been implementing the programme “Where there are no pre-schools” (WTANP) in cooperation with rural municipalities. The aim is to provide educational and child development activities for children in these areas.
