Several kindergartens and schools in the capital will have to be closed – Riga mayor
The mayor did not specify which institutions would be closed, noting that the main outlines of the changes would be known by the end of the week, and a decision could be made within two weeks.
Kleinbergs mentioned that there are areas in Riga where there is a shortage of places in kindergartens, but in other institutions, they are only filled to 50–60% of their capacity.
The politician promised that if an institution is closed and a child has to change it, the conditions in the new establishment will be the same or better than in the closed one.
