Key findings:

The study revealed significant overcrowding in kindergartens (the actual number of children exceeds standards by 20–30%), long waiting lists for enrollment (from 1 month to 3 years), and the unsuitability of premises for the needs of persons with disabilities. The report contains data on the budget funding deficit, which forced parents to independently cover costs for repairs, equipment, and additional educational services, and also provides specific recommendations to the local authorities.
