Children between zero and two years enrolled in nurseries run by municipalities are 149,647 in the 2012\/2013 school year; other 43,513 children benefit from contributions from the municipalities for private nurseries. Then the total number of children who benefit from the public offering amounts to 193,160.<\/p>\n
In 2012, the expenditure committed by municipalities for financing nurseries is about 1 billion and 567 million euro. 19% of this expenditure is accounted for by the fees paid by families, thus the expenditure paid by municipalities is about 1 billion and 263 million euro.<\/p>\n
Between 2004 and 2012 current expenditure for nurseries had an overall increase of 49%, net of fees paid by users. During the same period increased by 32% (more than 47 thousand units), the number of children enrolled in public nurseries or in private nurseries financed by the municipalities.<\/p>\n
In 2011, for the first time since 2004, there is a decrease in the number of children beneficiaries of the municipal offer of nurseries (-0.04% in 2011); the decrease is confirmed in 2012 (-4.2%).<\/p>\n
In 2012\/2013 enrollments for the municipal nurseries are declining (about 5,700 users in less than the previous year) and, to a lesser extent, also the contributions paid by municipalities for private nurseries are declining (about 2,600 users in less).<\/p>\n
The percentage of municipalities offering the service of kindergarten, both in the form of structures and of contributions for the use of private services, increased from 32.8% to 52.7% during the period 2003\/2004 – 2012\/2013 .<\/p>\n
Regional differences are very strong: the children attending public nurseries or structures financed by the municipalities ranging from 3.5% of residents aged between 0 and 2 years in the South to 17.3% in the Center. The percentage of municipalities that guarantee the presence of the service varies from 22.7% in the South all’81.9% in the North-east.<\/p>\n
In the school year 2012\/2013 children attending supplementary services for early childhood offered by municipalities amount to 1.1% of residents between zero and two years (about 20 thousand). This share is decreasing over the last three years of observation.<\/p>\n
Considering both nurseries and supplementary services, the percentage of children aged 0-2 (until their third birthday) who benefit from childcare services run or financed by municipalities is 13.0%.<\/p>\n
