Notes: - Depending on region, Nursery School may be in the same school as the primary grades - Reception Year is a bit more structured than Nursery School for 4-year-olds - In some regions, middle school comes between primary and secondary school. Grades vary, but may go from something like Year 6 to year 8. - 6th Form is the old term for Years 12 and 13. Depending on region, students may have to go to a separate 6th Form college or they may be able to stay at the same secondary school. - Magic folk don't have primary schools. They are either home-schooled or sent to muggle primary schools (see JKR's website) - There is no magical university.

In that case, Senior Kindergarten is just called Kindergarten. - In the United States, it is common to have middle school from grades 6-8. However, some districts/states/whatever run on the older system of junior high from grades 7-9.
