What type of education do people have in Europe?

Answer 1

Education in Europe (typically Western Europe) is much better and more successful than in the US. These countries have typically the best educational rankings in the world with the highest test scores among students. Students are typically taught the same basic ideas and generally around the same age, but some things might be more emphasized than others. For example, let's talk about students learning about World War I. In the US, students learn more about the US, their involvement, and their success. However, in a country such as Germany, students are taught about their involvement and their failure (obviously), however, this failure is toned down dramatically than compared to in the US. History is typically the most differentiated subject taught worldwide as there are many different opinions or ideas taught or emphasized.

Answer 2

In most European countries the education system starts when a child is 5 years old, they start 'early years' which is a light education, then moving onto 'Infant School' where they stay for 2 years learning how to talk/communicate, after the two years they move onto 'Junior School' where you learn basic maths and english skills, staying at Junior school for 4 years, in the last two years of junior school, tests called: SATS are taken to determine on how you will be at High School, by now the student should be age 11-12, At age 12 they start 'High School' these are final years of education that law requires a student to commit to, Delevoping English, Science, Maths and any other subjects that the student wishes to learn about. In year 10 and 11 they sit their final GCSE's which will allow them to progress to College or 6th Form (Year 12).
