What is the significance of primary school?
Primary school generally refers to the first grade to the fourth grade in the primary school stage. After four years of reading, those who pass the exam will be awarded primary school education. In the 1970s, there were primary schools in some remote areas of China. Due to the lack of backward teachers in remote areas, most of all the courses in the four grades are taught by one teacher. At that time, the primary education model was of great significance for eliminating illiteracy.

Senior primary school is also called senior primary school, which generally refers to the fifth and sixth grades of primary school. Due to the reform of compulsory education, there will be a five-year or six-year staggered primary school system in some areas. Generally qualified primary school graduation results refer to high school education.
