Kita Places في Bremen: يفي الزائد بالتسجيلات المنخفضة

Bremen, Deutschland - hot discussions about the daycare situation in Bremen, because there are currently more places than registrations. This became clear that as educational senator Sascha Aulepp presented the statistics for the kindergarten year 2025/2026. With 23,919 registrations with available 25,605 places, a clear change is emerging. Finally, over 1,300 childcare places were missing last summer. With the massive expansion of the past few years-14 new daycare centers that offer over 1,000 additional places-the trend reversal, which Buten and inland

The opening of these new daycare centers has supported the goal of demand -friendly care in large parts of the city. Nevertheless, there is still a need to catch up: In the districts of Gröpelingen, Huchting, Walle and Blumenthal, only 80 % of children in kindergarten age are currently supplied. Many families live here who do not send their children to a daycare center. A fact that has a particularly impact on the care rate. This is currently 30 % for children up to three years, while the nationwide average is 37.4 %.

children with special needs

A worrying trend is the increase in the number of children with language support that does not visit a daycare center. These children have been proactively registered with daycare centers for three years, but often experience a late or no registration, especially in families with migration history. The educational authority therefore plans to address families in a targeted manner and also wants to provide multilingual information in order to improve this situation. This strategy is also supported by Weser Kurier.

Educational Senator Aulepp emphasizes that the development in the daycare situation can be regarded as relaxation. The reasons for this improvement are both the decline in the number of registrations and the massively driven daycare expansion. Nevertheless, the challenge remains that in urban areas such as Bremen, many children with migration history and support needs do not yet receive early childhood education that could be crucial for their development.

financial concerns of the institutions

While the numbers are encouraging overall, parent associations express concerned votes. They fear that lack of registrations could lead to financial problems for 22 facilities in the network of Bremen groups of children. Especially in the districts mentioned, this could lead to enormous challenges for the companies and the families concerned.

The Senate has already made some efforts to counteract the lack of places, but the picture is not yet rosy everywhere. Especially the districts, in which the care rate for three to six year olds is only eight out of ten children, special attention should be paid. Here it is important to develop solutions for the problems in order to further improve daycare care, as Volksstimme.

It remains to be seen how the Senate reacts to the challenges. But one thing is clear: early access to education is crucial for the development of our children and thus for the future of the whole city of Bremen.
