21世纪经济报道记者王峰 北京报道 免费学前教育政策定了。国务院办公厅近日印发《关于逐步推行免 费学前教育的意见》（下称《意见》）。 《意见》规定，从2025年秋季学期起，免除公办幼儿园学前一年在园儿童保育教育费。对在教育部门批 准设立的民办幼儿园就读的适龄儿童，参照当地同类型公办幼儿园免除水平，相应减免保育教育费。 《意见》规定，标准按照县级以上地方人民政府及其教育、价格主管部门批准的公办幼儿园保育教育费 收费标准（不含伙食费、住宿费、杂费等）执行。民办幼儿园保育教育费高出免除水平的部分，幼儿园 可以按规定继续向在园儿童家庭收取。 以河北省秦皇岛市为例，当地公办省级示范幼儿园保育教育费每人每月为400元，伙食费为每人每天16 元；同类型民办普惠性幼儿园由县级主管部门设定保育教育费上限，一般不超过公办园的40%，伙食费 一般与公办园相同。 实行免费学前教育后，当地就读公办园和民办园的儿童都可以免除每月400元的保育教育费，公办园儿 童只需要交伙食费，民办园儿童还需要交400元以外部分的保育教育费和伙食费。 《意见》提出，从2025年秋季学期起，免除公办幼儿园学前一年在园儿童保育教育费，不含伙食费、住 宿费、杂 ...

2025年秋季起，幼儿园大班免一年保育教育费，由央地财政共同负担，降低家庭育儿成本。 国家免费学前教育新政落地。 根据教育部最新数据，2024年全国共有幼儿园25.33万所，在园幼儿3583.99万人。其中普惠性幼儿园在 园幼儿（即公办幼儿园和普惠性民办幼儿园）3283.19万人，占全国在园幼儿的91.61%。2024年全国小 学招生1616.63万人。 根据上述数据大致估算，此次新政一年惠及的儿童可能将超过1000万人。 目前幼儿园收费涵盖保教费、伙食费、活动杂费等，此次免除仅限保教费。目前各地幼儿园保教费收费 标准不一，一年几千元、上万元不等。幼儿园一般为三年制，此次免除保教费仅限学前一年，这主要是 出于财政可承受能力等考量。 财政部、教育部将统筹考虑学龄人口变化、财力状况等因素，研究适时完善免费学前教育政策。 根据《意见》，在免保育教育费标准方面，按照县级以上地方人民政府及其教育、价格主管部门批准的 公办幼儿园保育教育费收费标准（不含伙食费、住宿费、杂费等）执行。民办幼儿园保育教育费高出免 除水平的部分，幼儿园可以按规定继续向在园儿童家庭收取。 而此次免除的学前一年保教费则由财政承担。 《意见》称，对因 ...

Core Viewpoint - The newly announced national childcare subsidy policy allows eligible families to receive up to 3,600 yuan per child annually, which has led to increased consumer enthusiasm, but has coincided with rising prices of infant formula and related products online [1][6][11]. Price Changes in Infant Products - Many brands of infant formula have raised prices recently, with one brand's 810g formula increasing from 342 yuan to 359 yuan, resulting in an additional annual cost of 540 yuan for consumers [3][8]. - Price increases are not limited to infant formula; other baby-related products such as diapers and baby food have also seen price hikes, with some experiencing double-digit increases [3][8]. Online vs. Offline Pricing - Some brands attribute the price increases to the dynamic nature of e-commerce pricing, while offline prices remain stable due to long-term supply contracts with suppliers [4][8]. - A survey revealed that offline prices for these products are often lower than online prices, indicating a disparity in pricing strategies between channels [4][8]. Brand Responses to Price Increases - Several infant formula brands have denied any official price increases, stating that different promotional prices may apply at different times [6][9]. - Brands like Beiyinmei and Yili have claimed that while costs may have risen, their retail prices have not changed, suggesting a disconnect between consumer perceptions and brand communications [6][9]. Impact of Subsidy Policy on Pricing - The introduction of the childcare subsidy is expected to influence consumer behavior, potentially leading families to opt for higher-end products, thereby providing brands with an opportunity to raise prices [9][11]. - The subsidy, while seemingly modest at 300 yuan per month, could significantly impact purchasing decisions in the highly brand-dependent and inelastic baby product market [9][10]. Market Dynamics and Consumer Sentiment - The current price increases appear to be a strategic move by brands to adjust pricing structures following a period of intense price competition in the infant formula market [11][12]. - Although the price hikes have primarily been observed online, the timing of these increases in relation to the subsidy announcement has led to consumer dissatisfaction, as many have not yet received the benefits [11][13].
