At present in Delhi and some states of India the eleven-year school education pattern consists of the primary (classes 1–5, 5-plus to 10-plus age group), middle (classes 6–8, age group 11-plus to 13-plus) and high secondary school (classes 9–11, age group 14-plus to 16-plus). In other states the ten-year school pattern is established. Teaching of science as separate disciplines (physics, chemistry, biology, etc.) is running through middle and high secondary schools. For instance, biology is taught for six years (three periods a week, about 500 periods totally). In class 9, biology courses are mostly devoted to ecology. Therefore, the chapter ‘Conservation of nature’ is preceded by the divisions ‘Population’, ‘Biocenosis’ and ‘Biosphere’.
