To register

Who is the kindergarten for?

The kindergarten is intended for children where at least one parent is a scientist/student/post-doctoral student/intern/employee from the technical administrative sector. Additional exceptions will be considered per case by the Exceptions Committee, with full transparency.

Admission Criteria

Criteria to determine priority ruling:

50% - scientists
35% - students
15% - technical administrative sector

In each sector, priority is given to women

Setting quotas is reviewed every two years
In any case of graduation and/or termination of employment of a parent for any reason at the Weizmann Institute, the Institute reserves the right to terminate the child's residence at the Early Childhood Education Center, and the parent must transfer their child to another educational center, per individual case.
If more children than the number of places allocated to the sector, register, a lottery will be held amongst the children who meet the same criteria.
Exceptions will be reviewed individually by the Early Childhood Education Center Exceptions Committee
