but don't you only start reception (what you call kindegarten) at 6? We start it at 4 and it carries on like this.
Infant School
KEY STAGE 1
Reception - 4 to 5
year 1- 5 to 6
year 2 - 6 to 7
Junior School/middle school
KEY STAGE 2
year 3 - 7 to 8
year 4 - 8 to 9
year 5 - 9 to 10
year 6 - 10 to 11
High School
KEY STAGE 3
year 7 - 11 to 12
year 8 - 12 to 13
year 9 - 13 to 14
KEY STAGE 4
year 10 - 14 to 15
year 11 - 15 to sixteen
Then we have the option to go to sixth form for a few years, go straight to college or just leave and get a job.
So I was wrong, we start high school at 11.
