Pre-primary education


Definition:

Pre-primary education covers children from the beginning of the school year in the calendar year when the child turns 3 until the end of the school year in the calendar year when the child reaches the age of 7.

It is implemented in nursery schools, pre-primary sections in primary schools and in other forms of pre-school education (pre-primary education units and pre-primary centres).

The purpose of pre-primary education is to provide children with care, support their individual development, prepare them for learning at school and implement the core curriculum.
