What Is a Nursery School?
A nursery school is a school for children between the ages of 2 and 5 that is staffed by qualified teachers and professionals who encourage and supervise educational play rather than simply provide child care. Another common name for nursery school is preschool. From their very inception, nursery schools were designed to improve the health and welfare of children.
A preschool or a nursery school is usually a half-day program. Generally, the younger children attend two or three mornings or afternoons a week, and the 4- and 5-year-old children attend three to five times a week. The half-day preschools and nursery schools are often 10-month programs and typically don’t offer summer camps.
