(12 Posts)Wales is the same as England on this, so five years to GCSE or seven years if they stay on for sixth form.
England it is 5 to GCSEs, and then 2 more if they stay in that school for their 6th form. (which they may, or may not do).
In Scotland it is different.
5 years of secondary school followed by 2 years of 6th form or college.
Scotland 4/5/6 depending
England -
Year 7 to taking GCSEs in year 11, so 5 years.
Then separately years 12 & 13 for 6th form (A levels, IBDiploma, BTEC L2 or L3, etc)
PP is right to end of GCSEs. To the end of A levels includes years 12 and 13, so 7 years in total.
Dd did 6 in Scotland, but you can leave after 4.
7 if they stay for A Levels
5 if they stay until after G.C.S.Es
That is to GCSE level so age 16
5 years
Yr 7 through to yr 11
This is in UK and assuming they stay all the way through to the end of A levels.
Sorry if this is a silly question but I can’t seem to work it out through google. Is it 6?
