Kindergarten does not belong to the compulsory education stage.

Time of compulsory education:

Nine-year compulsory education refers to the compulsory education stage stipulated by the state, which lasts for nine years from the first grade of primary school to the end of the third grade of junior high school.

Introduction to compulsory education:

Compulsory education is a national education that school-age children and adolescents must accept according to law and is guaranteed by the state, society and family. Its essence is a system of compulsory education for school-age children and adolescents for a certain period of time according to law.

Implementation time:

As a large developing country, China has made great achievements in compulsory education. Since the promulgation of 1986, the compulsory education law has been fully popularized for 25 years. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, it has taken a short period of 10 years to realize the basic balanced development of counties, and the popularization and education quality rank among the top in the world, which has become a miracle in the history of world education.

Essence:

In fact, this is a compulsory education system for school-age children and adolescents according to law. The annual limit is nine years, which is also called nine-year compulsory education. Compulsory education is also called compulsory education and free compulsory education.

Twelve-year compulsory education:

Content:

Twelve-year compulsory education refers to bringing schools with high school education such as ordinary high schools, technical secondary schools, vocational high schools and technical schools into the scope of compulsory education, and implementing twelve-year compulsory education, excluding private schools.

Twelve-year compulsory education does not mean unconditional entry into ordinary high schools, and there is no limit on scores. All schools still need to take the senior high school entrance examination or enroll in some secondary vocational education institutions. China Special Economic Zone, ethnic minority areas, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Hebei and other places have tried out free education in secondary education and achieved good response. However, it is mainly concentrated in ethnic areas, coastal areas and other developed areas, and has not been widely popularized.

Process:

From 2065438 to March 2007, during the National People's Congress, delegates discussed 12 year compulsory education. Some CPPCC members suggested popularizing 12-year compulsory education throughout the country. There are different opinions from all walks of life. Some scholars believe that the time is not yet ripe, while others believe that China's basic conditions are already in place. Therefore, the proposal of popularizing 12-year compulsory education in the whole country is still being further demonstrated.
