School in the UK is between the ages of five and sixteen. Children younger than five can go to a toddler group (accompanied by a parent), playgroup or nursery school.
Compulsory schooling begins at the age of five. Pupils first attend school, which lasts for six years. Often primary school in the UK is divided into school (the first two years) and school (the following 4 years).
After primary school, students go to school until they are sixteen (practical emphasis) or 18 (secondary school with 6th form - academic emphasis).
