Système éducatif au Royaume-Uni
Le système éducatif au Royaume-Uni se caractérise par des différences notables entre les différents pays du Royaume-Uni (Angleterre, Pays de Galles, Écosse, Irlande du Nord) et le fait que le système est semi-privatisé. Le sondage réalisé par le programme PISA en 2006 situe le système éducatif britannique nettement au-dessus de la moyenne OCDE. Dans le Royaume-Uni, il y a deux systèmes utilisés, en Angleterre, Irlande du Nord et au Pays de Galles, il y a trois systèmes très similaires (le système britannique) mais en Écosse il y a un système très différent (le système écossais).
Twelfth grade
Twelfth grade (also known as 12th grade, grade 12, or senior year) is the twelfth year of formal or compulsory education. It is typically the final year of secondary school in most parts of the world. Students in twelfth grade are usually 17–18 years old. Some countries have a thirteenth grade, while other countries do not have a 12th grade/year at all. In Australia, the twelfth grade is referred to as Year 12. In New South Wales, students are usually 16 or 17 years old when they enter Year 12 and 17 or 18 years during graduation (end of year).
Système éducatif en Angleterre
Education in England is overseen by the United Kingdom's Department for Education. Local government authorities are responsible for implementing policy for public education and state-funded schools at a local level. England also has a tradition of private schools (some of which call themselves public schools) and home education: legally, parents may choose to educate their children by any permitted means. State-funded schools may be selective grammar schools or non-selective comprehensive schools (non-selective schools in counties that have grammar schools may be called by other names, such as high schools).
State school
A state school or public school is a primary or secondary school that educates all students without charge. Such schools are funded in whole or in part by taxation. State-funded schools exist in virtually every country of the world, though there are significant variations in their structure and educational programmes. Government funded education generally encompasses primary and secondary education (4 years old to 18 years old).
Système éducatif en Écosse
vignette|L'école Willowbank à Kilmarnock Le système éducatif en Écosse est caractérisé par une longue tradition d'enseignement public ouvert à tous, ce qui différencie donc le système éducatif écossais de ceux des autres nations du Royaume-Uni. De plus, l'éducation secondaire offre un grand nombre de matières scolaires contrairement à ceux anglais, gallois, et d'Irlande du Nord qui privilégient l'étude d'un petit nombre de matières, de manière plus approfondie.

Eleventh grade
Eleventh grade (also known as 11th Grade, Grade 11 or Junior year) is the eleventh year of formal or compulsory education. It is typically the third year of high school (and is the final year in some countries). Students in eleventh grade are usually 16-17 years of age. In Australia, Year 11 is the twelfth year of education and fifth year of high school education. Although there are slight variations between the states, most students in Year 11 are aged around fifteen, sixteen or seventeen.
Éducation au pays de Galles
This article provides an overview of education in Wales from early childhood to university and adult skills. Largely state funded and free-at-the-point-of-use at a primary and secondary level, education is compulsory for children in Wales aged five to sixteen years old. It differs to some extent in structure and content to other parts of the United Kingdom, in the later case particularly in relation to the teaching of the Welsh language. State funded nursery education is typically offered from age three.
Tertiary college
In England and Wales, a tertiary college is a type of further education (FE) college that offers both academic and vocational courses to both youngsters and adults, combining the main functions of an FE college and a sixth form college. Unlike a sixth form college these also have a substantial involvement in the education of adults over 18, therefore tend to have a wide spectrum of curriculum.
Sixth form college
A sixth form college (pre-university college in Malaysia) is an educational institution, where students aged 16 to 19 study typically for advanced post-school level qualifications such as A Levels, Business and Technology Education Council level 3 (BTEC), and the International Baccalaureate Diploma, or school-level qualifications such as General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) examinations and BTEC level 2 qualifications. In many countries this type of educational institute is known as a junior college.
