UNICEF has published a Global Annual Results Report on innovations in the global education system in 2021. The Report highlights the achievements of our country in a number of areas in education.

Thus, the document emphasizes that the state-funded pre-school training program in Azerbaijan covers 90 percent of 5-years-old children. In addition, as a result of the expansion of a scope of the project aimed at the development of community based pre-school education implemented in remote districts of our country, the establishment of 850 community based pre-school education groups in 695 community centers in 55 cities and districts has been presented as an achievement of our country in education. Currently, 16041 children aged 3-4 years old are studying in these groups.
