The history of education in Estonia dates back to the 14th century with the establishment of the first cathedral schools. The first university, the University of Tartu, was founded in 1632. One of the biggest contributors was Bengt Gottfried Forselius, who established the first institution to provide lectures in the Estonian language mixed with Latin. The education system is divided into four levels - pre-school, basic, secondary, and higher education. After graduating from basic education, students can choose to attend secondary school or vocational school, with only 18% choosing secondary school. Higher education includes universities and schools of applied sciences.
