About 60% of children in Northern Ireland get 12.5 hours of funded pre-school education a week
even before trying to meet that target.
The report found that childcare and schools were much more integrated in Denmark than Northern Ireland and parents faced lower costs. Children begin primary school in Denmark aged six, but the country also has a network of childcare centres and out-of-school care. "Funding continues to be a concern for parents in Northern Ireland although all children are entitled to a free compulsory pre-school year for 2.5 hours per day during term time."Therefore, the free pre-school year does not go far enough to provide care for working parents."
