Translation
Who decides whether a child in Germany attends kindergarten?
- A the state
- B the federal states
- C the parents/legal guardians ✓ Correct answer
- D the schools
Explanation
Attending kindergarten in Germany is voluntary, so the decision lies with the parents or legal guardians, not the state, the federal states or the schools.
Tips
- Kindergarten is a family decision because school, not kindergarten, is where compulsory attendance starts.
- The federal states set the rules for schools, but they don't force kindergarten attendance.
