You can choose the preschool you would like your children to attend. We do everything we can for your children to go to the preschool of your choice. Provided you have the necessary residence permits, your children aged between 1 and 5 are offered, in accordance with Sweden’s Education Act, the preschooling that is required in respect of the parents’ work/studies or each child’s needs. For asylum-seeking children, preschooling is offered from age 3 to age 5. For children of parents on parental leave, preschooling is offered for 15 hours per week during term time. For all 3 to 5 year olds, there is universal preschool. This offers the children 525 free preschool hours from the autumn term in which they turn three years old. Attendance at universal preschool is voluntary. You can apply via the municipality’s website, www.skurup.se/utbildningbarn. After-school recreation centres All children from preschool class age up to and including the 6th year of compulsory schooling can, if necessary, have a place at an after-school recreation centre. This includes morning and afternoon care. School-age child care is led by teachers and is an important and influential element in each child’s development. To a great extent, it is at these centres that children acquire role models, learn to play together and form basic values. All after-school recreation centres are located in school premises. The centres and the schools collaborate so that children have the sense that their days are cohesive. Fees Sweden’s system of charge ceilings applies to fees for preschools and after-school recreation centres in the municipality of Skurup. For more information, please get in touch with the head teacher or the school’s administrator.
