I really hope not. I think it is beyond cruel for three year olds to have to attend school. If it was only for two days a week, yes I think they would love it, would look forward to going, but thirty hours. Wow, what for? I can also see that many parents have to work and day care is the solution, but you shouldn’t have to send your child to school for thirty hours a week if you are not working. This starting school at the age of three is nothing more than a push to get mothers back into the workforce. If the children are in daycare for endless hours both parents might as well be working attitude. There should be options, pre school is great for children, very beneficial, but parents should be able to chose the age their children start, and for how long they attend.
