Yes. The British system consists of primary school, secondary school, college and university. The American system consists of elementary school, middle school, high school and college or university. Additionally, the British (or at least English) system has A Levels and/or GCSEs while the US has APs and IBs. In Britain, school years are 'forms', but in the US they are 'grades'. A 'class' in the US is a 'module' in Britain. Also, the US system grades in 'points' while the British system uses 'marks'.
