In Scotland, elementary school is called primary school and students start out at primary 1 which they are 4 and 5 years old.
Interesting, I think I was 5 when I started 1st grade, I could be wrong thoug
I believe I turned 6 right when it started. The UN had a goal of making sure there was universal primary education by 2015. So that means that every child everywhere completes this first bit of education.
I distinctly remember being a year younger than all my classmates throughout gradeschool. I recently heard the US is withdrawing form the UN is this true?
If this is true, it could be detrimental to human rights. These are essential for children to hit developmental goals.
