Re: english and american years???
no no, i was in bristol england for 1 year so i know exactly how it works.
in america 8th grade, would be year 9 in england, the people are the same ages in 8th grade and year 9, and the studies are the same.
has to do with americans having 1 extra year or something i dunno exactly

Keystage2(Juniors)
Year 3 - 7/8 year olds
Year 4 - 8/9 year olds
Year 5 - 9/10 year olds
Year 6 - 10/11 year olds
High school
Keystage3(Lower school)
Year 7 - 11/12 year olds
Year 8 - 12/13 year olds
Year 9 - 13/14 year olds
Keystage4(Upper school)
Year 10 - 14/15 year olds
Year 11 - 15/16 year olds
