Education Ministry official Robert Stepanyan says 80 percent of the republic children don’t get preschool education.
One of causes is unemployment – the most of jobless parents prefer to educate their kids themselves.

Education Minister Sergo Yeritsyan says the ministry intends to reach considerable results by taking proper measures.
