However, research in this area, including policies, suggests that the situation is not entirely satisfactory. This paper aims to determine the level of preparation of future teachers for teaching English to pre-primary children at individual universities in the Czech Republic. It presents findings obtained through quantitative content analysis of the syllabi of eight universities that provide education in the field of teacher training for kindergartens and focus on the preparation of future teachers for English tuition. The results show that courses for English tuition in kindergarten are not implemented by every university. Universities differ in their emphasis on foreign language tuition in kindergarten, which is reflected in the number and content of provided courses.  \nKeywords: early foreign language teaching, English language, preschool teacher training  \n1 PhD student at Faculty of Humanities in Zlín, Czech Republic; [b_hornickova@utb.cz](b_hornickova@utb.cz).  \n136 university preparation of kindergarten teachers for english teaching in the ...  \nUniverzitetna priprava vzgojiteljev predšolskih otrok zapoučevanje angleščine na Češkem  \nBeata Horníčková  \n• Čedalje močnejši trend zgodnjega poučevanja tujih jezikov zahteva pri-meren odziv visokošolskega usposabljanja bodočih vzgojiteljev predšolskih otrok. Raziskave s tega področja, vključno s politikami, kažejo nato, da stanje ni povsem zadovoljivo. Ta prispevek skuša prikazati raven priprav bodočih vzgojiteljev za poučevanje angleščine predšolskih otrok na posameznih čeških univerzah. Predstavi ugotovitve, pridobljene skvalitativno vsebinsko analizo učnih načrtov osmih univerz, ki ponujajo izobraževalni program predšolske vzgoje in se usmerjajo na usposabljanje za poučevanje angleščine. Rezultati kažejo, da se poučevanje angleščine predšolskih otrok ne izvaja na vsaki univerzi, pri čemer se ustanove razlikujejo po poudarkih, ki ga dajejo poučevanju tujih jezikov na vrtčevski ravni, kar se odraža tudi v številu in vsebini ponujenihpredmetov.  \nKljučne besede: zgodnje poučevanje tujega jezika, angleški jezik, predšolska vzgoja  \nIntroduction  \nDue to the increasing emphasis on the early start of foreign language teaching, there is a naturally increasing need for qualified teachers in this area (Pokrivčáková, 2012) . According to recent findings (Cameron, 2003; Hyes, 2014; Maroušková, 2013; Murphy et al., 2016), the level of qualification is not fully adequate. In general, there are misconceptions regarding the required qualifications for foreign language teaching in preschool education.  \nThe importance of a quality language model in early foreign language teaching was mentioned by Hanušová and Najvar (2006), who claim that the younger the child is, the more important the qualification of the teacher is. According to Edelenbos et al. (2006), an early start does not guarantee success in the language. In addition to a supportive environment and continuity, quality teaching is one of the key factors in successful English teaching.  \nAccording to the European Commission’s Strategic Framework for Educational and Training (2011), the qualification profile of kindergarten teachers has long been considered a critical factor for teaching English. The need to start a discussion on the content of kindergarten teacher education and the possible requirement for their qualifications is also mentioned in the document Strategy of the Educational Policy of the Czech Republic until 2020 (Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic, 2014).
