ISTAT has said Italy has a big
North-South divide in terms of access to nursery schools.
"There are still significant differences between the South
area and the rest of the country: in the North-East and Central
Italy, the places registered in public and private facilities
covered 30% of children under 3 years (in the 2014/15 school
year), 27% in the North-West, while in the South and in the
Islands there were respectively 10 and 14 places per cent of
resident children," the national statistics agency said.
