Exactly this. Teachers can basically spot the kids who didn't go to pre-school or day care before kindergarten and spend most of their days with one of their parents. A good daycare will basically help give your kids a head start in their development.

But how much, I wonder, are the kids really more developed - and how much are they more developed at classroom life. Also I wonder if there's some other correlated factors involved - if the children who stayed home are also more commonly in unstable families, since only high-income families can afford kindergarten, and high-income families tend to have different sorts of issues, and and more (at least superficially) stability.
