Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this research, we have examend arguments and system of compulsory infant school in Switzerland. At first, when Swiss Conference of Cantonal Ministers of Education has started discussion of infant school, reform of elementary level(which means education 4 to 8 years old) is main target. But from 2003, because of PISA schock, Swiss Conference has begun to examine to make infant school compulsory. And at last in 2006 They decides to make infant school compulsory because by universalizing infant school,it will provide all infants the same chance to education.
