Parents pay the same, the municipality more and more: what happens to the prices of Ljubljana kindergartens?

The article discusses the pricing of daycare centers in Ljubljana, Slovenia, highlighting that the city council has not increased prices since 2023, unlike other municipalities which have raised fees at least twice. Despite a 50% increase in operational costs over four years, the city council states they will not raise fees for parents, citing budget allocations. The article notes that while operational costs have risen significantly, parental fees remain unchanged. It also mentions a decline in the number of enrolled children, leading to reduced program scope but still higher overall costs. The city attributes cost increases to higher wages, energy, and food prices, though inflationary effects are partially mitigated through budget adjustments.
