PRIMARY (ENSEIGNEMENT PRIMAIRE)Schooling in France is mandatory as of age 6, the first year of primary school. Many parents start sending
their children earlier though, around age 3 as nursery classes are usually affiliated to a primary school. After nursery, the young students move on to primary school. It is in the first year that they will learn to
write and develop their reading skills. French primary school students teaches French, mathematics, science and humanities to name a few.

GERMAN SYSTEMOF EDUCATION
EDUCATION IN GERMANYThe responsibility for the German education system lies primarily with the states while the federal
government plays a minor role. The system varies throughout Germany because each state decides its own educational policies.
STAGES OF EDUCATION
German Education is divided into four stages:
1. Optional Kindergarten (nursery school) education is provided for all children between two and six years of age, after which school attendance is compulsory.
2. Most children, however, attend Grundschule (primary education) from the age of six to ten.
3. After finishing their Primary education, children enters German secondary education which includes five types of school.
4. Tertiary Education

KINDERGARTEN (NURSERY SCHOOL)The German preschool is known as a Kindergarten. Children between the ages of 2 and 6
attend Kindergarten. They are often run by city or town administrations, churches, or registered societies, many of which follow a certain educational approach as represented. Attending
a Kindergarten is neither mandatory nor free of charge, but can be partly or wholly funded, depending on the local authority and the income of the parents.
GRUNDSCHULE (PRIMARY EDUCATION)
Parents looking for a suitable school for their child have a wide choice of elementary schools:

various parts of German-speaking Europe
GESAMTSCHULE
Gesamtschule is a comprehensive school . While some German schools such as the Gymnasium and the Realschule have rather strict entrance requirements, the Gesamtschule does not have such
requirements. They offer college preparatory classes for the students who are doing well, general education classes for average students, and remedial courses for those who aren't doing that well.
TERTIARY EDUCATION
University of applied sciences, college of technology, university of cooperative education – the German higher education system has many facets, many different types of institution. This diversity enables
students to select the best course for their needs.
