“…The previous section noted that most of the world's children live in countries where the official age bracket for preschool is from age 3 to age 6, just as most children go to primary school between ages 6 and 12. This is not to say that all governments have actually made preschool education free and compulsory, but every country has at least an intention to provide preschool to children within a certain age bracket (Faas & Wasmuth, 2019). Later, we present arguments as to why our calculations are based on a duration of just 2 years-an age bracket of 4-6-as a first step in universal preschool.…”

Policy borrowing and exchanges of knowledge occur at this level as many countries often refer to international research and trends to implement educational reforms (Faas and Wasmuth, 2019).…”

Policy borrowing and exchanges of knowledge occur at this level as many countries often refer to international research and trends to implement educational reforms (Faas and Wasmuth, 2019).
