History of the journal
There has always been a earnest need to create new collections in order to increase the effectiveness of the scientific and pedagogical process. Until 1970, there was a need to publish a separate scientific-methodical journal, as articles on preschool and primary education and problems in this area were published only in relevant books, newspapers and literary-artistic journals. Therefore, by the decision of the Ministry of Education of the Azerbaijan SSR, in February 1970, in addition to the journal "Azerbaijan Journal of Educational Studies ", the journal "Primary School and Preschool Education" was published. The first editor-in-chief of this collection, which has 6 printed pages and is published 6 times a year, was Doctor of Pedagogical Sciences, Professor Yahya Karimov. The journal had a circulation of 25,000-28,000 a year. In the pages of the journal, prominent educators, Scientists of Science and Art Nasraddin Tusi, Mahmud Kashgari, Hasan bey Zardabi, Tagi Shahbazi Simurg, Omar Faig Nemanzadeh, Firidun bey Kocharli, Rashid bey Afandiyev, Huseyn Javid, Articles about Suleyman Sani Akhundov, Mirza Alakbar Sabir, Abbas Sahhat, Abdulla Shaig, Uzeyir Hajibeyov, Samad Vurgun, Mir Jalal, Mehdi Mehdizade and others acquaint teachers and educators with prominent identities of education, school, science and art. After the 30th anniversary of the journal "Primary School and Preschool Education" in 2000, it continued its activities as an independent scientific-methodical publication of the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Azerbaijan, and in 2009 the journal was renamed "Preschool and Primary Education".
