Pre-school
Pre-school education is made up mainly of childcare centres and kindergartens, operated either by the government or private service providers. The state ensures affordable and high quality early childhood education in all such establishments, where young children are exposed to a holistic curriculum that helps nurture their character as well as build literacy and numeracy skills. Kindergartens generally offer 2-year programmes, with some also providing full-day care for pupils who require such a service.
