Could anyone please tell me a couple of things about Japanese schools.
What are the compulsory ages for going to school?
What ages correspond to the grades, ie: grade one is it 6, 7 or 8?
How are the schools split, are they primary, middle and secondary or something similar?
I watch some anime and films that feature school kids, but I get confused about grades and ages because it is slightly different from how we do it in the UK, even with the starting ages. In the UK compulsory school age is 4/5 (depending on when your birthday is) to 16
