Structure of the

British

Education System

The British education system may seem bewildering

at first glance,but it’s full of tradition and strict rules.

Education principles differ slightly in the four

countries which constitute the UK, so we will provide

you with the basic information on school institutions.

How does National Curriculum work?

The National Curriculum is constructed

in five Key Stages:

Key Stage 1 -

for pupils aged between 5 and 7 years old

Key Stage 2 - Years 3 to 6 -

for pupils aged: 8 and 11 years old

Key Stage 3 -Years 7 to 9 -

for pupils aged : 12 and 14 years old

Key Stage 4 - Years 10 to 11 - for pupils aged:15

and 16 years old

Key Stage 5 - Years 12 to 13 - for pupils aged:17

and 18 years old.

In state schools each year that a pupil studies is

given a number. Primary education starts in Year 1.

Most pupils begin their secondary education at the

age of 11 (Year 7)

At the age of 16 (the end of Key stage 4 and Year

11), all pupils take a series of exams called the

General Certificate of Secondary

Education (GCSE), usually in about eight to ten

subjects, which must include English and

Mathematics. Key Stage 5 is for pupils aged 16-18

(sometimes 19) and most schools take Advanced

Level exams after a two-year course.

Almost all HMC Projects Scholars enter the first

year of Key Stage 5. All pupils entering Year 12

(of the thirteen years of the National Curriculum)

are beginning new courses at this point in their

education.

In Scotland, pupils move to secondary education

at the age of 12. At the age of 16 they take

exams called Standard Grades and then move

on to Highers and Advanced Highers. These

are very similar to the English Advanced

Subsidiary and Advanced Level courses.

Early Years:

Children in the UK have to legally attend primary

and secondary education which runs from about

5 years old until the student is 16 years

old..Education is compulsory for all children

between the ages of 5 (4 in Northern Ireland)

and 16.

FE is not compulsory and covers non-advanced

education which can be taken at further (including

tertiary) education colleges and HE institutions

(HEIs).

The fifth stage, HE, is study beyond GCE A levels

and their equivalent which, for most full-time

students, takes place in universities and other

HEIs and colleges.Early Years Education In

England since September 2010, all three and four

year olds are entitled to15 hours of free nursery

education for 38 weeks of the year.

Early Years education takes place in a variety of

settings including state nursery schools, nursery

classes and reception classes within primary

schools, as well as settings outside the state

sector such as voluntary pre-schools, privately

run nurseries or childminders.

In the UK, there are four types of state schools.

First is the community school, which is run by the

local authority, sometimes offering their facilities

and providing services like childcare and adult

learning classes.

There are also foundation and trust schools.

Foundation schools have their own governing body,

which employs the staff and sets the admissions

criteria; while a trust school is a type of foundation

school which forms a charitable trust with an

outside partner. Voluntary-aided schools are mainly

religious or ‘faith’ schools, although anyone can

apply for a place.

As with foundation schools, the governing body

employs the staff and sets the admission criteria.

Voluntary-controlled schools are similar to

voluntary-aided schools, but are run by the local

authority.

Primary School

The primary stage covers three age ranges:

nursery(under 5), infant (5 to 7 or 8) (Key Stage 1)

and junior (up to 11 or 12)(Key Stage 2)but in

Scotland and Northern Ireland there is generally

no distinction between infant and junior schools.

In Wales, although the types of school are the

same, the Foundation Phase has brought together

what was previously known as the Early Years

(from 3 to 5-year-olds) and Key Stage 1 (from 5 to

7-year-olds) of the National Curriculum to create

one phase of education for children aged between

three and seven.

In England, primary schools generally cater for

4-11 year olds. Some primary schools may have

a nursery or a children’s center attached to cater

for younger children

Secondary School

Public provision of secondary education in an

area may consist of a combination of different

types of school, the pattern reflecting historical

circumstance and the policy adopted by the

local authority.

Comprehensive schools largely admit pupils

without reference to ability or aptitude and cater

for all the children in a neighborhood, but in some

areas they co-exist with other types of schools,

for example grammar schools. Academies,

operating in England, are publicly funded

independent schools.

University preparation in the UK

At the age of sixteen, following two years of study,

students may take A-Levels (Advanced Level

examinations) required for university entrance in

the UK. Over these two years following secondary

school education, students specialize in three or

four subjects that are usually relevant to the degree

subject they wish to follow at university.

At the end of the first year, students take AS level

examinations. They continue with three or four of

these subjects in the second year and convert them

into full A level qualifications at the end of the year.

A-Levels are state examinations. All British

universities recognize A-Levels results.

The UK Curriculum

1. A broad and balanced curriculum

A wide range of subjects which include arts, science

and humanities are covered in the British

Curriculum.

Students learn the basics of numeracy and literacy

at the foundation stage of the curriculum. At primary

level, students are taught the fundamentals of

mathematics and English.

Science, technology, humanities and arts subjects

are also introduced as multi-disciplinary topics and

integrated in school projects. The curriculum aims

to hone students’ higher order thinking skills and

encourage independent learning as they prepare

for the (I)GCSE examination

2. Organized into Key Stages

The British Curriculum is divided into blocks of years

called ‘Key Stages’ (KS). Students are formally

assessed at the end of each Key Stage. The first

Key Stage is Early Years (Ages 2 to 5). After that,

students enter primary level and complete KS1

(Ages 5 to 7) and KS2 (Ages 7 to 11).

Secondary levels consist of KS3 (Ages 11 to 14)

and KS4 (Ages 14 to 16). At pr-university level,

students go through KS5 from the ages of 16 to 18.

The Key Stages provide teachers a clear overview

of a student’s academic progress and solutions to

help students achieve their desired academic goals.

3. Child-centered and Personalizes

Teachers have the opportunity to be creative with

lesson planning which results in differentiated

outcomes and a range of achievements. As the

curriculum covers many subject areas, students

are encouraged to focus on the subjects they are

good at while receiving support in subjects they

find difficult.

They are also taught to not only memorize facts

but to gain a deeper understanding of what they

are learning

4. Culminates in globally qualifications

Students who are taught the British Curriculum sit

for the (I) GCSE examinations at the end of Key

Stage 4 and A Levels at the end of Key Stage 5.

This Key Stage is also referred to as Years 12 and

13 or the Sixth Form. Both (I)GCSE and A Levels

are recognized worldwide and opens up many

opportunities to students when it comes to higher education

In addition, these qualifications are highly regarded

by universities and companies in the United

Kingdom and the rest of the world.

5. Education beyond the classroom

Although academics play a huge role in the British

Curriculum, students have the chance to pursue

their passions and interests in extracurricular

activities. Activities such as team sports and

performing arts are widely available in schools

which provide the curriculum.

The spirit of competition and camaraderie is also

a strong feature of British boarding schools in the

United Kingdom and their international branches.

Students are also encouraged to develop skills in

debating, discussing, questioning and problem-

solving, which are important skills that will help

greatly when they enter university and the

workplace.
