Grades 6-8 usually, high school 9-12.
I don't know what grades are. Homerboy explained it though.
Hrmm, they keep saying 'college'.
That's because after 6th form you can continue to study at a college, other subjects that they don't offer at your 6th form, for example Woodwork etc. However colleges don't do degrees like universities do, they tend to continue A-Level work (or the same kind of complexity) which is what you study at 6th form college.
Neckarb:
Grade School: 1-5
Middle School: 6-8
Highschool: 9-12
College: 12+
(though you can "go to college" at a College OR a University)
Hang on... You guys go to your college at 12?! We have:
Nursery School, Age 1-5
Primary School, Age 5-11
Secondary School, Age 11-16
Sixth Form/ College, Age 16-18
College or University for continued education.
Yeah we have the same thing, but College's here don't offer degree courses, they just continue "College" level work.
