Early childhood education and training

The update of the English sections of the Tervola municipality’s website is currently underway.

The people of Tervola share the experience of having a safe childhood. In Tervola, the class sizes are small and the village school network is comprehensive: kindergartens, primary schools, high school and Lappia Vocational College.
Hobbies for children and young people are affordable and easy to get involved in.

The aim of early childhood education is to promote the child’s holistic growth, development, and learning in cooperation with their guardians. Early childhood education is the foundation of our education and schooling system. Children receive early childhood education in daycare centers and family daycare.

In the year before basic education, children attend pre-primary education. General basic education is intended for all children aged 7-16 years old. Basic education supports growth into humanity and ethically responsible membership in society.
