      Agreed. I remember my 6th form days very well (although many years ago!), me and a few friends got into very similar situations. (FYI "6th Form" was effectively the last 2 years of your High School although MOST kids back in the day chose not to stay at that age and look for a job instead)

    The Inbetweeners is the most relatable show ever made for almost everyone in the UK. It's so popular because pretty much every other High School show or film we watch is American and really glorifies the whole experience, which just isn't how it happened for any of us really. I've seen it so many times, I can probably quote every line.

    In Britain we have,
    Pre school (your kindergarten) from 3-5
    Then kids go to 'Primary school' between 5-11.
    Then they go to Formal school "Secondary education" from 11-16 where all pupils sit there GCE's (equivalent to your GDA) and possibly if a pupil passes the grades they can go onto "6th Form" (pretty much your HighSchool) and become a '6 Former' for 2 years to do their A-Levels.
    After the age of 16 though any pupil can drop out of secondary if they engage in a College course. If any student completes a college course (time dependant on the course taken of course) they can apply for a specific University course, anyone can apply and pay for their own Uni course albeit it's a lot cheaper though if you have past qualifications/experience within the field they want to study... It's a complicated structure compared to your system, tbf...

    The only part of this that differed for me going to sixth form in the UK was that the local pubs accepted colour photocopies of passports back then and a few enterprising students learned very early that being able to use Photoshop was going to be a useful life skill going forward.

    High school (when I was there) started back at year 1 again. 1 through to 6. Hence the term 6th form. They changed it all many years ago and years 1 - 6 now refer to primary school (5 - 11 years old), years 7 to 11 were high school ( 12 - 16 years old) and were compulsory for everyone, BUT years 12 and 13 were/are additional years if you were doing A level (advanced level) exams and are the way to get into university. 12 and 13 are rather confusingly still referred to as 6th form, from back in the day. We can leave school at 16 if we have a college place or job to go to. I left at 16 and went into an apprenticeship which included college 2 days a week. The good thing about this is that I was getting paid from the age of 16. Most stay on for 6th form nowadays because they are more ambitious than we were back in the 1980s.

The lead's supreme level of confidence in spite of his status is the only thing that seems a touch unrealistic. Everything else is spot on.

    in England it goes 4-5 years old to 7 years old is Nursery school. 7-11 is primary school... then from 11-12 years old to 16 years old is called Secondary school. 16-18 is college (or 6th form. where you stay on at your school to further study the subjects you're good at, it's like college but not going college just staying at school) then from 18 upwards is university. That's a basic explanation.
    The guys in the show are in the 6th form in that school. meaning they're 16-17 years old and doing further education on their better classes. It still gives you the same qualifications as a college gives

  • @kamc1959

    Primary school is when you're a child from when you start school. From about 11-16 it's high/secondary school. We used to have middle schools when I was at school which I started just before i turned 10yrs but they merged with high schools in 1992 and I was almost 13. Had they not merged I might have had to do another year there, then i went to high school. After you do your main exams at the end of high school- GCSEs when you get to 16yrs, you have the option of going to 6th form which is an extension of high school or you can do the same types of qualifications after high school in a college though colleges tend to have a wider range of choices of courses (such as A levels) to do. When you finish 6th form or college when you're 18 that's when you can go to university.

    Yes this is accurate teen existence in the UK. It was a little different when I was that age but the general and relentless piss taking was exactly the same. This is why so much tends to just bounce off us Brits, we have been toughened up from a very young age.

    Infants from 5 to 9, middle school 9 to 11, high-school 11 to 16, college and 6th form 16 to 18. Uni after that. I heard you say Only Fools and Horses is a rabbit hole, but it a bloody good rabbit hole. Sullivan who wrote it also used the news politics and pop culture of the day.

    Primary school = elementary school = year 1 (kindergarten) until year 6 (5th grade)
    Secondary school = middle and high school = year 7 (6th grade) until year 13 (12th grade)
    Sixth form = year 12 and 13 of secondary school = 11th and 12th grade
    Sixth form isn't compulsory but you have to do some sort of education like an apprenticeship or college until age 18
    College is different to university but I don't really know why
    These characters are just starting year 12/sixth form
    GCSEs are exams, you choose around 8-11 subjects in year 9 and sit exams for them in year 11
    AS levels are taken in year 12 and A levels are taken in year 13

    The first two seasons they're in lower sixth, which is equivalent to junior year of high school, in the third season they're in upper sixth which is senior year.

    Happy New year guys! 😍 For info, the school they are at is called secondary school or high school. They're aged 11-16 (from memory) From aged 16 they go into the 6th form at school and stay there until they're 18. You can opt to go to 6th form or leave school at 16.

    Remember when I was 17-18 yo I went to a winter x games in Aspen with my friends. Afterwards we decided to try and get into a bar. My three friends were in front of me and they just walked in but as I was walking in the bouncer stopped me. Lol my friends stayed inside and drank and I had to sit in front and wait for them come back out.

    Weirdly, in Britain, "Public school" means a kind of private school. Eton and Harrow, the famous schools, are both "public schools", but not anyone in the public can go to them (£ks/term, for a start).
    Will's new school is what we would call a "state school".

    I imagine school has changed a bit now as everyone has mobile-phones and safe-spaces...but this a perfect representation of early 2000s south-east middle-class subburbs education. (It's scary how many of the situations and coversations are exactly what me and friends went through at the time)
