The British Education System
There are five stages of education in the UK: namely early years, primary, secondary, further education and higher education.
For all students between the ages of five (four in Northern Ireland) and sixteen in the UK, primary and secondary education is compulsory.
When a student finishes secondary education, they have the option of doing further education and gaining additional academic or vocational qualifications.
If a student plans to do higher education, usually consisting of university, they must complete further education.
