      • Single structure education: All students follow a common curriculum from the start of compulsory education until its completion.
      • Common core curriculum provision: After completing primary education (ISCED level 1), all students move to lower secondary education (ISCED level 2) where they follow a shared curriculum.
      • Differentiated lower secondary education: Students are directed to different secondary education pathways based on their interests or academic abilities.
