I'm from the UK and I go too a British school yet I am watching this and I don't even know why ;)

okokok you got primary ages wrong... Nursery = 3-4 Reception = 4-5 Yr1 = 5-6 2 = 6-7 3 = 7-8 4 = 8-9 5 = 9-10 6 = 10-11 Secondary school 7 = 11-12 8 = 12-13 9= 13-14 10= 14-15 11 = 15-16

The US education system..... you do years 1-8 then drop out & sell drugs or work in mcdonalds

I have watched several videos about the UK education system and you explain the most clearly. Thank you.

I've never heard anyone call secondary school high school....

And after all this you become a waiter...

Calling this "The UK education system" is a bit of a misnomer. There are 3 different education systems in the UK. England and Wales, the Scotland, then Northern Ireland.

Chris you missed out reception class... :P good explanation though, very clear :)

That was so quick and precise. I'm doing research for a book I'm writing and this video helped me when I was lost with other complicated videos

In Scotland it's different. First you have nursery (3-5 years old). Then primary, so 5-6 yrs old for P1 up to P7 at 11-12 years old. Then High school, you start at 1st year from 12-13 years old up to 6th year, (or S6). From 17- 18 years old. You have a choice at 4th year to drop out of school or not. But usually u won't get a good job. Then College and everything is the same in this video. And We have Catholic schools and Private schools and Public schools (catholic schools are usually public). If u live near a high school u don't wanna go u can do a few exams to try and get in to your desired school. If u live near a Primary you don't wanna go to, you can simply just register for another school by going there. Uniform is required in all schools except for Uni (university) and College. From a blazer, shirt, tie, colour of Muslim scarf's and shoes and stuff. Usually schools have their own colour/s for their school. In UK they provide you with jotters and textbooks and everything. But they suggest you should bring your own pens/pencils. So that's all I have to say pretty much

bro your marker so smooth and the video is greatly compressed to be short so thank youuuu for the vid

i used to call secondary school ‘high school’ back in primary and my classmates kept telling me to stop trying to be american lmaooo

Super helpful, Chris, thanks! It's always a little confusing when people talk about high school in the UK vs. high school in the US. Keep up the good videos!

YAAAAH FINALLY I GOT IT! man i was so confused on the "sixth form" thing but not after this vid, thank you.

I finally understand the UK education system! Thank you

This is the England and Wales education system :/

This is very simple and i finally understand about the uk edu system. Thank you very much for your simple and clear explanation.

Finally a super clear video on the edn system

Thanks a lot mate, this was pretty helpful for me!

Very well explained, I hope I got it now😅 Your handwriting is really cool btw

Loved your video So brief and enough

1) very well explained. I think non-uk students will understand this 2) do you still cube or have you quit / given it up?

Thank you for the video, concise and precised

Thank you, so much! This is entirely helpful!

Hey, doing my research project about English Education sistem, glad that I found your video!! Thank you so much for very clear explanation, this was very much useful

You understoond us so fast,,, that we could not understand Perfectly

That's odd. In America we have Preschool, which usually starts at age 2 - 3. Then after a year or two of that, you go into Kindergarden. Then after that year, you finally start Elementary School (Primary School). You are in Elementary School from ages 5-10 (grades 1-5). Then you go into (a hell hole) called Middle School from ages 11-14 and grades 6-8. Then after Middle School, you are finally in High School (Secondary School). You are there from ages 15-18 and grades 9-12. Then after High School, you have the option of going into College (2-5 years, depending on what degree you want to get). The rest is the same as it is in English afterwards.

Thank you for this. Can you do one with explaining the grades or pass marks in tests or exams?

Thank you, this was really helpful!

It's different in Scotland, we have 7 years in primary school then 6 in high school or academy

very clear and simple thank you

Oh my god thanks, I swear it took me some time to find a video like this

Thank you for such a great explanation

Great video! Very helpful

Thank you! This was very helpful

This video is helping me for my seminar right now. Thanks for the information. Love from India. 🥰 -Teacher training student

Thanks dude you helped me a lot

Thank u very much. That was really helpful.

I always struggle with education system, i cant distinguish them

I finished my project( for tomorrow ) about schools in britain in one day thanks to this video 😎

Very well explained!

0:02 These drawings are so cute

Ok, now I know because in Africa primary school starts around 6 years old

I finished Primary at 11 years old as most of the rest of my class did except for those born between the end of July and the start of September

I like how he doesn't mention SATs but that's what is deciding my grades.

Where I live in the UK there is no primary or high school. We have nursery, reception, lower school, middle school, upper school.

This is just about england. Its a completely different system in the other british countries aka scotland or northern ireland

Wonderful. Thank you.

oh only thing is that year 7,8&9 arent part of highschool. it would be year 10&11 and 6th form because unless you drop out, school isnt optional before you turn 18

Huh. It was weird hearing somebody my age say they were going to "college" since in the US college and university are the same thing, so thank you for the explanation.

Very well explained. Thank you. Other videos on the topic were not as helpful.

Reception is 4-5 and then year 1 is 5-6 so you end primary school at 11

So my son is 16.5 years old and is in his class 12 in India. Does he join the 13 year or college before uni?

Okay. Can you join a university without all the other classes, if you come from a different country and you have studied the exact classes there?

You go to primary school in Scotland until primary 7 then high school for 6 years

This almost like PH system. Same age and same levels on Primary but when it comes to highschool, we have this called Junior and Senior high school wherein we spend 4 years on junior high while 2 years on senior high. After that, you can now go to college which takes 3-4 years or sometimes depends upon your course plus a year or two for a degree.

The Caribbean educational system is actually quite similar to the UK. Pre-school Kindergarden Primary School (Grade 1 to Grade 6) Secondary School (1st Form to 5th Form) In 5th Form we do CXC or CSEC exams. Then after you either go to college or university, or start working.

Very great job!

I’m English and I go to an English school but do we have to go to college or university?

In English education in Cameroon , we first had 7 years in primary school. But it was abolished in 2006 due to Francophone influence.

Sixth Form and College are pretty different! They are not the same thing. Once you complete your GCSEs, you can either go to Sixth Form, College or go do an Apprenticeship. College you generally choose one course, based on one subject (Computer Science, Performing Arts, Public Services etc.), and some people go to college for longer than 2 years, as they may choose a level 2 course (generally, with lower requirements in terms of GCSE grades), then after their level 2 course, do a level 3.

Why did watching this when he reached the sixth form part give me a panic attack? I’m 13 and I still have ages until I go into sixth form but I’m still worried about failing stuff like this 😂

Not everywhere in the U.K has this system I went through first school, middle school, high school and then college

Cats and dogs take a few months to adapt to a completely new world but I need 25 years to get a base-level job.

this is the same for me except we do 7 years in primary school and 5 years in high school (i’m from northern ireland)

Very useful. Tks

I have a very important question. Can you study in The Netherlands, Italy or Germany after finishing A-Levels?

That's strange I had to be 6 to be in year 1 and 10 or 11 for year 6

That was really helpfull💖

It was clear but Scotland which is in the uk schools system is different

Im from another country. Can someone please explain to me at 2:03 what the degrees and percents means? The better u do in your exams the closer you get to the 1st degree? Or am I missing something?

in us we have elementary (1-6), middle (sometimes 6-8) and high (9-12)

listen bro im in a bit of a pickle rn and i need help at my private school, we have the option to leave school at year 11 and go directly to university but the uni in the place i want only have a specific number of subjects mostly engineering and tech but what i choose to study during year 10-11 is dt and gd which will not help me at all in university is there a solution?

I live in the uk and have a completely different system schools are called the same but years and stuff like that are completely different

I have two doubts, I hope you would solve them for me. 1) do you get a Masters degree in one year in England? 2) How long does it take to get a PhD? I’m writing from Mexico. Here it takes two years to get a Masters degree in a public university and two or three more years to get a PhD.

Are high school graduates highly employable? Or are they generally limited to low-paying jobs like waiting tables at restaurants (assuming they choose not to start a business of their own)?

Please what's the equivalent of ' passable; French system' ?? Is it 2.2 or 3th

I searched up what middle school meant because I live in the UK and I wanted to know,but this came up

you missed out BND's and HND's at collage and university level respectively.

This is wrong , year 1 is 5-6 year 2 is 6-7 year 3 is 7-8 year 4 is 8-9 year 5 is 9-10 and tear 6 is 10-11

So I’m 17 and I still have 2 years left in high school(cuz I live in the UAE) so what? If I go to England will I have to continue my 2 years left or go straight to collage, I’m really lost plz help

When I was at school in the 50/60s it was different, there were no 'Year numbers' you did 3 years in infants, 4 years in primary the, a minimum of 3 years in senior school so you could leave at 15, most of us could read very well at 5 or 6, only 1 TV channel till 1955 so we all had to read back then..

In zimbabwe its Grade 1-7 (6years-12 years) Form 1 to upper six (12-18 years) there's (IGCSE, AS and A LEVEL) Cambridge Then university

guys he missed out a year from primary , before year 1 is foundation/reception which is age 4-5 if your wondering whyhis ages messed up

For me, Year 11, it's 6 subjects, about 20 exams. (4(?) English, 6 science, 4 history, 1 art, 2 computer science, 3 maths) It can depend on the school, or what subjects you take at GCSEs... but that's how it is for me

If anyone is from France, do you also think our education system is messed up? Especially the part after you’re 15 or so

Different in Scotland but I didn't know England was so different for education

Are there public universities in the UK, or are they all private?

Secondary School is like middle school and the first two years of high school combined.

Thanks for the video but for someone who have bad English like me it's hard to focus with the music in the background

Love ya handwriting

Reception is 4 to 5. And so on

what's the meaning of a level or o level in uk education or cambridge curriculum

what if you are 16 years old and moving to england from sweden . in sweden when you are 16 you go to three years of college and then university . please someone tell e what iam going to start i mean which year or something

Thank you!

Only thing wrong with this is that year 1 is actually called reception. So year 1 is technically year 2 where you go from 5-6. Weird I know...

I just finished year 8 in my country,took exams,going into year 11 in uk.YOURE TELLING ME I HAVE TO TAKE 10 EXAMS

I thought this was going to explain prep school vs public school vs state school etc which all mean different thing in the UK than the US. I would love an explanation of this.

I’m in primary school still!!! At least I’m in Year 6, assessments next week!

What? I started school later than U.K students but I finish at the same age?
