In Great Britain, England, Wales and Northern Ireland follow the National Curriculum, with some variations. Scotland, on the other hand, has its own curriculum. In the UK, children generally start formal education at the age of four, earlier than in the US. Students take exams at key stages in their education. Then the two-year program starting at the age of 14 ends with the GCSE (General Certificate of Secondary Education - O-Levels or ordinary levels until 1988), and the next two-year program starting at the age of 16 is crowned with the English “Baccalaureate”—secondary school diploma exams, i.e., A-Level exams. (Advanced Level). Overall, it can be said that the system leads students towards increasing specialization.
