The task of general education is usually undertaken by schools that implement general education. General education schools are divided into general basic education schools, vocational education schools and ordinary institutions of higher learning, all of which implement full-time teaching. General basic education is divided into preschool education, primary education, junior high school education and senior high school education, including special education for disabled children, teenagers and young people and work-study education for supernormal students.
Vocational education includes general secondary professional education, vocational high school education, mechanic education and higher vocational education.
