Now we have to wait and see, because the decisive factor is, of course, the corresponding school enrollment examination, which is currently taking place across the board, according to Schröter. “Only around June will it become clear how many children will be affected by the provision.” However, provisions would also bring considerable challenges for the day-care centers, because the places are already planned for children who should be admitted to the day-care centers. That could become a problem if too many children were cared for in too little space. Exceptions may have to be granted for this.

Later enrollment is legally possible
From a purely legal point of view, it would be possible to start school later. This is regulated in every state school law, explains Roman Schulz from the state office for schools and education in Saxony. “If everything has already been decided, if the school entrance examination has already taken place and something still comes up, then there is a limited possibility of exception,” adds Schulz.
