Do people in Chile go to school?

Answer 1

Yes, public school students are supposed to be in school all day long. But no, not everyone has to go through day long schooling. For example, private schools may follow their own schedules. But a Chilean law of 1997 requires day long instruction in public schools. Previously, it was possible to be in school only half days. But the country now has over a decade of experience with full day long shifts in public schools.

Answer 2

Yes, Chileans go to school. Their country is nicknamed one of the 'ABC' countries of Latin America. The letters refer to Argentina, Brazil, and Chile as having North American style commitments to education, literacy, and socio-economic development. Specifically, all three countries have benefited from German Immigration. German language speakers tend to support advanced training, education, and research.
