Early childhood education and care as activities complementary to bilingual pre-primary education
Complementary early childhood education and care is provided by daycare centres, with client fees determined by the family’s income.
The English School of Tampere also provides English-language complementary early childhood education and care through a service voucher. The co-payment additional to the service voucher is determined by the family’s income.
