[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] That list shows the US primary age as 6. Most schools here have a cut off of 5 at the start of K, some still at 4. So I don't know how that list is compiled. And it shows that the UK starts at 5, which as I stated on here in a previous post, is the country most like our's in terms of social makeup. [/quote] Teachers in the UK are currently complaining about the instruction and complaining about teaching the kids to read too early. This cutoff is new for them. I lived in Europe.. Kids start later than here. [/quote] Kids in the UK start reading instruction at 4 in reception, and have for many years.[/quote]
