Sixth formIn the education systems of England, Northern Ireland, Wales, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago and some other Commonwealth countries, sixth form represents the final two years of secondary education, ages 16 to 18. Pupils typically prepare for A-level or equivalent examinations like the IB or Pre-U. In England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, the term Key Stage 5 has the same meaning. It only refers to academic education and not to vocational education. Sixth Form describes the two school years which are called by many schools the Lower Sixth (L6) and Upper Sixth (U6).
Système éducatif en Écossevignette|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.
Éducation au pays de GallesThis 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.
Grammar schoolUne grammar school est, dans les pays anglophones, un établissement d'enseignement secondaire ou, plus rarement, d'enseignement primaire. Les origines des grammar schools remontent à l'Europe médiévale. Le but premier des grammar schools (littéralement « écoles de grammaire ») était d'enseigner la grammaire latine aux jeunes gens qui les fréquentaient. Le cursus devait plus tard inclure d'autres langues, telles que le grec ancien, le français, l'anglais et les autres langues européennes, ainsi que les sciences naturelles, les mathématiques, l'histoire, la géographie, etc.
EdexcelEdexcel (also known since 2013 as Pearson Edexcel) is a British multinational education and examination body formed in 1996 and wholly owned by Pearson plc since 2005. It is the only privately owned examination board in the United Kingdom. Its name is a portmanteau term combining the words education and excellence. Edexcel regulates school examinations under the British Curriculum and offers qualifications for schools on the international and regional scale.
Further educationFurther education (often abbreviated FE) in the United Kingdom and Ireland is additional education to that received at secondary school that is distinct from the higher education (HE) offered in universities and other academic institutions. It may be at any level in compulsory secondary education, from entry to higher level qualifications such as awards, certificates, diplomas and other vocational, competency-based qualifications (including those previously known as NVQ/SVQs) through awarding organisations including City and Guilds, Edexcel (BTEC) and OCR.
Système éducatif en AngleterreEducation 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).

AnglaisLanglais (English ; prononcé : ) est une langue indo-européenne germanique originaire d'Angleterre qui tire ses racines de langues du nord de l'Europe (terre d'origine des Angles, des Saxons et des Frisons) dont le vocabulaire a été enrichi et la syntaxe et la grammaire modifiées par le français anglo-normand, apporté par les Normands, puis par le français avec les Plantagenêt. La langue anglaise est ainsi composée d'environ 29 % de mots d'origine normande et française et plus des deux tiers de son vocabulaire proviennent du français ou du latin.
