Primary 1 to 3 (aged 7–9 respectively, Lower primary) Primary 4 to 6 (aged 10–12 respectively, Upper primary) Six years of primary school education in Singapore is compulsory. Most public or government schools are 4-term schools and most private schools are 3-term school, but the 3-term government or public schools and 4-term private schools are not rare.
A school year for the majority of schools in South Africa runs from January to December, with holidays dividing the year into terms. The perceived better performance of learners within the IEB exams is largely attributable to their attending private, better-resourced schools with the much lower teacher: learner ratios and class sizes rather than because of fundamental differences in assessment or learning content). (The assessment and learning requirements of both IEB and National exams are of roughly the same standard. Exam papers are set and administered nationally through the National Department of Basic Education for government schools, while many (but not all) private school Matrics sit for exams set by the Independent Education Board (IEB), which operates with semi-autonomy under the requirements of Umalusi.
Those in the last year of high school (Grade 12) are referred to as 'Matrics' or are in 'Matric' and take the Grade 12 examinations accredited by the Umalusi Council (the South African board of education) in October and November of their Matric year. The number of years spent in university varies as different courses of study take different numbers of years. After the FET phase, learners who pursue further studies typically take three or four years to obtain an undergraduate degree or one or two years to achieve a vocational diploma or certificate. However, because this division is newer than most schools in the country, in practice, learners progress through three different types of school: primary school (grades 1–3), junior school (grades 4–7), and high school (grades 8–12). In South Africa, education is divided into four bands: Foundation Phase (grades 1–3), Intermediate Phase (grades 4–6), Senior Phase (grades 7–9), and the Further Education and Training or FET Phase (grades 10–12). On the other hand, colleges of education give out NCE (Nigerian Certificate in Education) after a two-year period of study.Ī group of high school girls of South Africa getting photographed. However, the HND cannot be obtained without the OND certificate. Higher National Diploma (also known as HND) can be obtained in a different institution from where the National Diploma (also known as ND or OND) was obtained. The Polytechnic gives out National Diploma and Higher National Diploma certifications after a period of two years and/or four years of study respectively. The Nigerian system of education also has other recognized categories like the polytechnics and colleges of education. Those in university, as well as those in secondary school, are referred to as students. Those in primary school are often referred to as pupils. Some courses have longer study length than others. However, the number of years to be spent in university is mostly determined by the course of study. It implies six years in primary school, three years in junior secondary, three years in senior secondary and four years in the university. In Nigeria, education is classified into four system known as a 6-3-3-4 system of education.
