Unlicited rides continue to function in the country

A large number of private children's gardens in Kosovo exercise their activity without any adequate licenses for carrying out this event. The owners of these gardens say that the requirements for licensing have been made over time, but because of negligence or failure to operate the evaluation commissions by the Ministry of Education, they have not received [...]
And according to laws to power the institutions of primary education have no right to start work without being licensed.
Tens of kindergartens of children in Kosovo continue to work without work licenses, which is prohibited under an administrative directive issued by the Ministry of Education. garden director “Kids Step” in Pristina, Azize Mala, told Radio Kosovo that they have applied for licensing for two years, but have not yet received any answers on the part of the ministry.
” In March of this year, we've had two years of opening the garden, after a month we've applied to be licensed. In April 2018 we have applied two years to the Minister of Science and Technology and have not yet received answers. According to our assessment, we meet the criteria for licensing, and yet we have not received positive nor negative answers”, Mala said.
The task of Leader of the Private Education Division in August, Saranda Ceku, said that the licensing and re-licensing of these gardens has occurred because the relevant commission for licensing is not working.
“Locally licensed gardens with currency licenses are 67, while in the process of licensing and relicancement there are 55 gardens of private pre-school institutions. There are obstacles to the prosecution of these subjects due to the failure of the licenses and re-licensing commissions, said Ceku.
Under administrative instruction, gardens have no right to work without a license. While there are such ones who for years work without license, due to the impasse in procedures on the part of commissions by the Ministry of Education, Ceku stressed.
Even a garden that is not licensed is not allowed to work. It is administrative instruction that regulates the issue of licensing and relicance of private pre-school institutions. One of the criteria in this instruction is that since institutions are equipped with more licenses, then they can continue working as private institutions licensed”, she said.
The failure of commissions to visit gardens that have applied for licensing and relicensing is forcing dozens of gardens in Kosovo to work illegally.
