How do school grades in england work?

Question

in the us we have 1st grade through 12th grade. Do kids in england graduate before kids in the us would? i mean would they graduate at a younger age or is it pretty much the same?

Answer 1

We leave primary school at 11 in year 6 and start high school in year 7 and we can leave in year 11 at 16 or stay on till year 13 at 18.

Btw i live in wales which is right next to England btu we have the same schooling system.  

Answer 2

we don't actually 'graduate' as such. we go to primary school from the ages of 4 to 11 (reception year to year six) then we move to secondary school from ages 11 to 16 (years 7 to 11). school in the uk is compulsory till age 16. you do gcses at age 16 in year 11. after that you can go to a college (usually for 2 years to do a levels or btecs or other courses), or you can get a job or apprenticeship. after college (age 18 usually) most people go to university to study for a degree (which can take any length of time depending on what you study). at the end of your degree if you are successful, you graduate!

Answer 3

We leave at 11 not 10!

Answer 4

You Start at 4 in reception, and then you go year 1,2,3 and so on. At 11 or year 7 you start secondary school, until year 11 where you do your GCSEs, then you either leave or stay on through 6th form, sometimes you have to go to a separate collage for that where you have year 12 and 13 and have your AS levels and A levels. Then at 18 you go to Uni.

Answer 6

Well we start in Nursery (Kindergarten) if our parents want us to go there, Then in reception you are 4-5 yrs, then Year 1 up to Year 6 you are in Primary, then in Year 7 (11-12) we start high school till Year 11(15-16) and when we get to 16 it is our choice to stay in school if we want to do GCSEs but most people do, and then we could go to 6th form (if your school has one) or go to another local schools, then after that it is up to you:).
