I actually dated someone American and we exchanged info on school systems lol
Accidental info dump below the cut (sorry loves)
Over here college is 16-18 (or whatever age you apply, anyone can go to college. For example my friend is 20 and there's some 19 year old in our class who took a level 2 course before getting progressed onto level 3 so they're doing an extra year) after that you can do university or higher education in general. Our uni is your "college".
My ex actually told me they don't have apprenticeships over there either, that's an alternative to college where you get paid to do on the job training.
Hope this helps!
Oh yeah also we have year groups rather than grades
Infant school:
Reception = 4-5 (yrs old)
Year 1 = 5-6
Year 2 = 6-7
Junior school:
Year 3 = 7-8
Year 4 = 8-9
Year 5 = 9-10
Year 6 = 10-11
High/secondary school:
Year 7 = 11-12
Year 8 = 12-13
Year 9 = 13-14
Year 10 = 14-15
Year 11 = 15-16
Then you can choose college or sixth form - sixth form is 2 years where you stay at secondary school but with perks like not having to wear uniform and taking only the subject you want to do rather than being forced to do 3+core subjects
Core subjects are maths, English and science, these are non optional
You choose 3 others in I think year 10 (I think this has changed now and you have to pick 4) so you get classes for that as well as the core subjects. You have to study those for GCSE which is our equivalent of your SATs.
You also have to do PE (physical education aka gym class), that's non optional but you don't get assessed or have an exam on it
We take SATs in year 6 and a mock version in year 2
Some schools are called primary schools which means it's infants and junior mushed together.
Jeeeeeeez that's a lot of writing. Sorry I know you asked a simple question but I'm oddly interested in this shit.
At college you take 1 subject, that's seperate to school and it's a different building, different set up etc. We don't have dorms and we don't stay on campus it's like school but with no uniform, no detention, no petty punishments and more relaxed teachers. There also tends to be less bullying since it's optional. You also go in for less days most of the time unless it's a prestigious college like the one I initially applied for with runs 9-5 5 days a week.
Even though college is optional you have to do college or an apprenticeship, you can't just immediately find a job or drop out because it's illegal.
