Do all children go to school in England?

Answer 1

In the UK, education is split into five "Key Stages", as well as an early years stage.

The majority of children aged 3-4 attend a nursery for one year. Half a day's education is provided for all free of charge, but if a full day is required, the second half of the day must be paid for by parents, although government help is available for low income families. The next year of education is compulsory, and is held in an infant school, and is called reception. Here children aged 4-5 learn to read and write, but are not assessed.

Key Stage One is made up of years 1 and two for children aged 5-6 and 6-7 respectably. At the end of this key stage, children are tested by teachers in English, Maths and Science. This stage takes place in an infant school, sometimes combined with a junior school to make a primary school.

Key Stage Two is made up of years 3, 4, 5 and 6. At the end of year six, students are externally examined in English and maths externally, and science by teachers. This stage takes place at at junior school, sometimes combined with an infant school to make a primary school.

Key Stage Three is made up of years 7, 8 and 9. At the end of this stage, pupils are tested in all main subjects by teachers. This stage takes place at a secondary school.

Key Stage Four is made up of years 10 and 11, and is the last compulsory stage in the British Education System. Pupils are assessed externally in English Language, English Literature, Mathematics and Science, as well as in several other subjects of their choice (usually another 7-9 subjects). They are graded A* - G. This stage also takes place in a secondary school.

Key Stage Five is an optional stage, where pupils attend either a sixth form center of a collage. AS Levels can be achieved after one year, graded A-E. Pupils usually achieve four of these. After another year, up to three of four subjects are continued up to A2 Level, graded A*-D. This is equivalent to the first year of an American degree (UK Bachelors Degrees are typically three years as opposed to the USA's four). Most UK students choose to take A2 Levels and hope to progress to university.
