Do you have a child aged 3-6?

For kindergartens and primary schools in the state of Nordrhein-Westfalen apply the “Educational principles for children from 0-10 years” (https://www.mkffi.nrw/sites/default/files/asset/document/bildungsgrundsaetze_januar_2016.pdf).

The German federal states have developed education plans (curricula) that implement the educational standards in the individual school subjects. The education plans define the subject-related requirements (learning content) and describe the competencies to be achieved (learning goals). On basis of the education plans, the schools develop their own curricula for the subjects.
