Primary school:
Primary school is a school where people receive primary formal education. It is an important part of basic education and belongs to the category of nine-year compulsory education.
With the development of society, kindergartens have opened in front of it. Generally, 3-6 years old are kindergarten-age children, and 6- 12 years old are primary school-age children. At present, the length of primary education is 6 years (5 years in a few places). After the primary education stage, it is the secondary education stage, that is, from primary school to junior high school (junior high school for short).
In addition to the characteristics of education, primary education has unique basic characteristics: one is universality, and the other is compulsory.
Primary education institutions first appeared in Germany in16th century. They were received by towns and taught practical knowledge and Protestantism.
/kloc-At the beginning of the 0/7th century, the number of such schools gradually increased, and they became institutions that implemented compulsory education. After the bourgeois revolution, European countries and Japan were successively established.
Primary school is called "primary school", which refers to the education stage from grade one to grade four. Those who pass the fourth grade will get a "junior high school" education.
In 1970s, primary schools were generally established in underdeveloped rural areas of China. Rural schools in many areas are compound classes of primary schools with "one school, one teacher, one class". A teacher attended all the courses in four grades. Primary and secondary education is of great significance to eliminating illiteracy.
High school is called "advanced primary school", which means that the fifth and sixth grades of primary school are called "advanced grades", and those who pass the high school exam will get high school education. Before 1949, senior primary schools were not common in China.
Schools with primary schools and senior primary schools are referred to as "complete primary schools" or "complete primary schools". After the implementation of "universal nine-year compulsory education" in China, the establishment of complete primary schools in rural areas has become the basic standard.
Primary schools in county towns and cities above are generally complete, so they are no longer marked after the 1960s, while complete primary schools in rural areas are still the symbol of education popularization.
