Courts nationwide prosecuted 77 kindergarten employees on charges of child abuse between January and November, with another 69 arrested and awaiting trial, the top prosecuting authority said on Thursday.

While the numbers are not large, an expert has said they show that authorities are paying greater attention to child protection, including against sexual predators.

Shi Weizhong, deputy director of juvenile prosecution for the Supreme People's Procuratorate, said local authorities are testing several methods to stop convicted sex offenders from working with minors, such as at preschools.
