Nursery education and primary education together form basic education. Nursery education is intended for children from 2.5 to 6 years and is not compulsory. However it does contribute to the child's social development. Nursery education can sometimes bring problems or possible disabilities to light before a child goes to primary school, so it is advisable to send your child to nursery school.
