A little more than a month remains until the beginning of the school year. Not only schoolchildren and students but also young children want to study. Whilst the legislation guarantees the availability of places in educational institutions, parents sometimes face difficulties when they want to enroll a child in a preschool group.

High Commissioner for Human Rights in the Russian Federation Tatiana Moskalkova was approached by resident of Moscow T. There was no place for her three-year-old daughter in the preschool education group near the house.

The federal ombudswoman sent requests to the Prosecutor’s Office of Moscow and Moscow Department of Education and Science. As a result of joint work, the girl will be able to attend classes from September 1, 2021.
