The difference between compulsory education and lifelong education
1. Compulsory education means that the government has the obligation to use public resources to ensure that all school-age children receive education.

The three basic principles of compulsory education are compulsory, universal and free.

All school-age children should receive compulsory education, and there is no class or birth limit for the objects of education.

2. Lifelong education means that the process of education should last and be consistent with one's life. In other words, the education sector begins with the birth of an individual and ends with the end of his life. An unfinished day is a life-long journey.

Third, compulsory education is passive, and lifelong education is spontaneous and subjective.
