Parents affected by the sudden closure of a preschool in Bishan are seeking answers, after they were initially given just a day’s notice of the closure. Little Paddington Preschool has since delayed the closure by a week, and offered enrolment at its other branch at Thomson Walk around five kilometres away. It will also arrange transport for affected students. The Early Childhood Development Agency said it will take action against the preschool, if it is found not to have done its due diligence. At least six months’ notice must be given to both parents and the Early Childhood Development Agency for preschool closures. Chloe Teo reports.
