  2. Types of British Schools
  There have been great changes in the educational system in Great Britain. A few education acts have been issued to raise standards at all ability levels, to give parents a wider choice of schools and to make education more economically available to large numbers of people.
  The main categories of schools in Great Britain are:
  1) local education authority maintained schools (public schools);
  2) schools not maintained by the local education authority.

  Conclusion
  Compulsory education is for children between 5 and 16 years old. Primary education begins in the UK at age 5 and continues until age 11, comprising Key Stages 1 and 2 under the UK educational system. From age 11 to 16, pupils will enter secondary school for Key Stages 3 and 4 and to start their move towards taking the most important assessment – the General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE's). Primary and secondary education is mandatory in the UK; after the age of 16 education is optional. Once pupils complete their GCSE's they have the choice to go onto further education (2 more years) and then potential higher education, or finish school and go into the working world.
