Friday marks the end of the booking period for the new kindergarten year. The new kindergarten portal was used for the first time throughout Styria. It will still be weeks before a definite acceptance or rejection is made.

Just in time for the state elections, the then black and red governments pulled the state's children's portal out of a hat. The aim was to make the process, which is tedious for many parents, simpler and more transparent. It has now been active since the beginning of January - time for an initial assessment.
