Ages

Starting age of schools in different countries

 I looked up different countries and the age children can attend pre school or primary school. This is not legally it's the age they are entitled to start if needed and wanted.

Age 3- 3 countries

Age 4- 5 countries

Age 5- 3 countries

Age 6- 11 countries

Age 7- 3 countires

Interestingly most countries start from year one. Which to me and what this country are so used to having children attend pre-school seems crazy. We have a whole different curriculm in reception and nursery, the foundation stage which in these 11 countries doesn’t exist.  I am interested in knowing if anyone’s background is in another country and were schooled in another country I would really appreciate a brief encounter onto your thoughts?
