Since 2003, the Serbian Ministry of Education decided to propose an option "La main à la pâte - Discovering the World" (30 hours per year), for primary classes of 1st, 2nd and 3rd level (the equivalent in France of CP, CE1 and CE2 i.e. pupils of 6, 7 and 8 years old). This option allows to children a self- discovery of sciences through the experimental process and is currently followed by about 300 schools (approximately 20% of Serbian 1st level pupils).
