- Germany: Early education reached 96.5% of children aged three to primary-school age in 2025.
- Romania: Preschool participation rose to 79.4% in 2025.
- Lithuania: Enrolment among children under three stood at 43.3% in 2025, covering a younger age group than the German figure.
The figures show uneven participation across the EU, though the different age groups are not directly comparable.
