Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: Nations differ greatly in the size and functioning of their nonpublic schools. They vary widely in the amount of resources provided for, and government regulation of, nonpublic schools; in the populace's perceptions of public and nonpublic schools; and in the role that nonpublic schools play in the nation, particularly regarding development.
Given this variety, clear definitions and generalizations are difficult to make.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: A national system provides services to the all 3-4 years olds with high salaries for educators, as well as additional services for families for health and education services for young children. Child-care specialists have noted the following characteristics of the exemplary French program: (1) all children have access to a coordinated system linking early education, day care, and health services; (2) parents get paid leave after childbirth or adoption; (3) early childhood teachers receive good salaries, thus reducing turnover; (4) nearly all young children are enrolled in preschool programs; and (5) the government provides additional resources to ensure high quality at locations enrolling low-income children.
