Pre-school education is vital and is the foundation to education as preparation for further studies. Studies have proven that pre-school education may increase a child’s cognitive, social and personality development and has positive short-term and long-term effects. Children who have attended pre-schools are more confident and tend to excel and hold better positions compared to children who do not.

Investment in pre-school education is more preventive and  is able to help children who are at risk, have special needs, or are slow learners. The effect of pre-school education depends significantly on the quality of the pre-school programme given. The state government is very particular when observing the development of pre-school education to ensure its excellence.
