Education in my country.
Russian education system is very similar to education in Australia. Russian children begin to visit kindergardens when they are three year old. From age five children begin to study to read, write and learn simple mathematics operation. From age seven all children must study at primary school. Education is co-ed, but some private schools prefer separate education for boys and girls. Studying in a school till age 16 is compulsory. After year eight children can continue education at a high-school or in a college. Usually studying in a high-school lasts till age seventeen-eighteen.
