Bavaria: Municipalities: All-day entitlement at primary schools cannot be implemented

Munich (dpa / lby) - With a view to the lack of staff and tight coffers, the Bavarian cities and municipalities see no chance of fulfilling the entitlement to all-day care for primary school children as planned. "The municipalities do not see themselves in a position to implement the legal entitlement to all-day care for primary school children that will exist from mid-2026 under the current framework conditions," wrote the four central municipal associations in Bavaria on Tuesday in a call for help. A "dramatic undersupply in Bavarian child day care" is emerging.
