This page is about the English Education System.

Note: The age range for Nursery and Preschool may be incorrect, correct it if it is.

Nursery
This is the first stage of school for most kids, but this one is optional. Kids around the ages of 1-3 can be in this stage.

Preschool
This is the second stage of the English education system, It is for kids aged around 4-5. Just like nursery, its optional.

Primary School
This is the third stage, Its for kids aged 5-11. Unlike preschool and nursery, it is NOT optional (This also applies to secondary school). There are 7 year groups in primary school, they are: Reception (5-6), Year 1 (6-7), Year 2 (7-8), Year 3 (8-9), Year 4 (9-10), Year 5 (10-11) and Year 6 (11-12). There are also 2 key stage groups KS1 and KS2, KS1 is Y1-Y2 and KS2 is Y3-Y6.

Secondary School
This is the fourth stage, Its for kids aged 11-16 (Its 11-16 because some kids in Year 7 yet have to become 12 while some already are.). There are 5 year groups in this stage, they are: Year 7 (11-12), Year 8 (12-13), Year 9 (13-14), Year 10 (14-15) and Year 11 (15-16). Its also important to note that as you get higher in year groups the harder the work and homework is. Just like primary, there are also 2 key stage groups, them being KS3 and KS4 (KS3 is Y7-Y9 and KS4 is Y10-Y11).

College
This is the fifth stage, Its for kids aged 16-18. There is NO year groups in this stage and NO key stage groups, this stage is mainly to help kids aged 16-18 get ready for University.

University
This is the sixth and last stage, its for kids aged 18 and over. Like college, there are no year groups or key stage groups. Universities main focus is to get kids to learn about their dream jobs. In the UK there are generally only 1 university for each county which are mainly in the capital of the county.

Note: Universities are not allowed in this wiki, so dont make a page about one from the UK.
