A central administration oversees the process for the education of children from kindergarten to the third and final year of high school. Mathematics, science, Korean, English, and social studies are generally considered to be the most important subjects.[4]Normally physical education is not considered important as it is not recognised, by the South Korean populace, as education and therefore many schools lack high-quality gymnasiums and athletics. South Korea was the first country in the world to provide high-speed internet access to all primary, junior, and high schools.[5]
