Baciu commune, adjoining Cluj-Napoca and growing fast, has invested heavily in kindergartens in recent years: Kindergarten No. 1 Baciu (new building, 2024), the kindergarten in Suceagu (2023) and the one in Corușu, plus Hungarian groups in Mera. The commune also has its first public nursery, opened in 2024. Coordination falls to “Constantin Brâncoveanu” secondary school Baciu.

Below you’ll find the list of units, where to enroll, and the capacity context.

Being a new service, confirm the number of places and current status with Baciu town hall or “Brâncoveanu” school.

How to enroll

  • Kindergarten: on the ISJ Cluj calendar — see the enrollment calendar and enrolling in a state kindergarten.
  • Nursery: the file is submitted at the commune’s coordinating unit, not the Cluj-Napoca municipal network.
  • Priority goes to families living/working in the commune.

Confirm the details. Addresses, groups and especially nursery places change. Confirm with Baciu town hall and “Brâncoveanu” school before enrolling.

Capacity and context

Baciu is one of the fastest-growing areas around Cluj, practically continuous with the city. On the 3–6 side, recent investment (Kindergarten No. 1 from 2024, Suceagu from 2023, a renovated Corușu) has brought reasonable capacity. The tight point remains ages 0–3: the public nursery is recent and has few places, so many families have relied so far on the nurseries in Cluj-Napoca (municipal or private).

Note: “Grădinița Neghiniță” on Calea Baciului is in Cluj-Napoca, not Baciu commune — don’t confuse the two.
