    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.
  • @joegray1322
    I've never heard anyone call secondary school high school....
  • 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.

    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

  • @s_greenmachine
    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!
  • @scott7224
    Thanks a lot mate, this was pretty helpful for me!

    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.

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