Parents are to protest for yet another day in front of the Sofia Municipality building over the shortage of nurseries and kindergartens in the capital city. Their protest is held under the motto “Place for Every Child!”. It turned out that more than 10,000 children were left without kindergarten and nursery after the first ranking in the electronic system.

 The Sofia Municipality promised that more children will be admitted to nurseries and kindergartens after the second ranking and that new kindergarten groups will be opened later in the autumn.
