Key Stage 1(5 to 7 years old).
Key Stage 2(7 to 11 years old).
Key Stage 3(11 to 14 years old).
Further education: For students after secondary education.
University education: Prepare students for GCSE exams.
University:
The United Kingdom are known for universities, such as the university of Cambridge and the university of Oxford.
Universities historically have been independent and self-governing; however, they have close links with the central government because a large proportion of their income derives from public funds.
Higher education also takes place in other colleges.
The government introduced the present system of student loans to replace dwindling grants for living expenses.
Established higher-education funding councils in each part of the United Kingdom (England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland) to coordinate state support of higher education.
In 2010, in the interest of budget reduction, the government raised the maximum level of tuition for higher educational institutions.
England got up to £9,000 (about $11,600) per year.
In 2016 that limit was raised to £9,250 (about $11,900), with plans to allow further increases to keep up with inflation.
