Amharc ar fhreagraThe Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) programme is implemented by my Department and provides for one year's free preschool year for each eligible child before they commence primary school. The child referred to by the Deputy is availing of the full free preschool complement in this academic year and there are no circumstances where a second free preschool year is provided under the programme.
