[quote=Anonymous]Friends from London are moving to DC over the summer. They have already been accepted to a couple of the top 3 schools and a couple of others. Their concern is which grade to start their eldest son. He is 10 and currently in the 5th grade in England. I just learned today, that children in England start school a year ahead of the US and their son could technically be in the 6th grade next year, but for US school age he would enter the 5th grade next year. Their question to me as they consider which school to pick etc : Is their child really a year ahead of his peers or is the schooling in England similar to the US, with the UK start year similar to our pre-k? Thanks for any help![/quote]
