Med denna studie har vi som avsikt att skapa en förståelse om hur villkoren ser ut för 15-timmarsbarnen i Ängelholm. Vårt tillvägagångssätt handlar om att använda enkäter och intervjuer för att besvara våra frågeställningar. Våra huvudsakliga frågeställningar handlar om hur pedagoger ser på sitt pedagogiska uppdrag gällande 15-timmarbarnen, hur föräldrar till dessa barn ser på sitt barns förskolgång och hur politikerna ser på bestämmelser kring 15-timmarsregeln. === In the Education Act (of Sweden) its described that children to parental leave or children to unemployed have the right to attend at least tree hours a day or 15 hours a week, at preschool. We’ve studied various aspects of the terms of 15 hour children in Ängelholm. We have chosen to approach our issue by using interviews and questionnaires with parents, preschool-teachers and a politician. Our main questions is about how parents look at their children’s stay in preschool, how preschool- teachers look at their pedagogical assignment and how the politician approaches the regulation around the terms of the15-hour rule. After recalling some aspects of Uri Bronfenbrenners theory, we present an approach to his model and use the different kind of levels to make our research findings legible. Further on we are using prior research as Qvortrup and Halldén. Their research concerns preschool as an institution. To sum up we have come to the conclusion of that there is a big lack of communication between the different information groups. The municipality has to take a decision, according to these children, based on the financial situation; the preschool teachers have no power to influence the decision of the municipality and don’t have as much time for the parents as they wished. The parents are concerned that there children don’t have the time they need in preschool and that there children are going to miss out on activities that the other children at preschool gets.
