Summary

The bill proposes to the government to organize the transformation of Estonian basic and school education into a unified and Estonian-language one, which would ensure the cohesion of society and ensure, regardless of the native language of young people, their competitiveness and equal access to education and the labor market. Ensuring non-native students learn their native language and culture. The transition to unified early childhood education has been organized for 2024, which is a prerequisite for the transition to unified Estonian-language for school education by 2030. In the explanatory letter, it is stated that the first step is to transfer preschool education to unified Estonian-language education by 2024. The experiences of different countries and many studies show that language learning is most effective in kindergarten, where the language is acquired in a short time while playing. This would be followed as a logical step by the transition to a completely Estonian-language general education.
