Default Re: Types of School in India

Education in India is provided by the public sector as well as the private sector, with control and funding coming from three levels: central, state, and local.

Education System in India

The central and most state boards uniformly follow the "10+2+3" pattern of education

In this pattern, study of 12 years is done in schools or in collegesand then 3 years of graduation for a bachelor's degree

THE EDUCATION SYSTEM

The Indian education system is structured as follows:

Pre-school: Education at this level is not compulsory. The Montessori system is especially popular at the pre-school level

Private play schools: Catering for children between the ages of 18 months and three

Kindergarten: This is divided into lower kindergarten (for three- to four-year-olds) and upper kindergarten (for four- to five-year-olds)

Primary school: First to fifth standard/class/grade (for six- to ten-year-olds)

Middle school: Fifth to eighth standard/class/grade (for 11- to 14-year-olds)

Secondary school: Ninth and tenth standard/class/grade (for 14- to 16-year-olds)

Higher secondary or pre-university: 11th and 12th standard/class/grade (for 16- to 17-year-olds). This is when students choose an academic area on which to focus

Undergraduate: A BA is a three-year degree. Specialised courses such as medicine and engineering can be longer

Postgraduate: A one-year course
