All countries try to ensure that all young people enter working life with a minimum amount of human capital gained through the years of compulsory education.

Pinpointing the evaluation of systems, the starting age or the compulsory education, the duration Of the compulsory education, the financial support given by the governments and the diversity of the Courses constitute our main concern in comparing the countries in this study. Previous Studies about Compulsory education, Country reports, EU official documents and reports have been analyzed for this research.
