Universalization of pre-school education is an important strategy
for achieving universalization of primary education. If every
child can avail of some kind of early childhood education,
the chances are high that the child will go on to regular
school. Moreover, the pre-school exposure will enhance and
strengthen the child's subsequent school performance, in terms
of achievement and attendance.
