I'm from England, and I'm confused. Can someone please tell me how old a child is in each different grade?
I read questions on here about children who are in 7th grade, for example, but how old does this make the child? What is the average age for a child in each particular grade- I know that some can be advanced, and some held back.
Please help me to understand what age children are when they are referred to on here using just their grade.

it is rather like our school year system only one year behind
so if a British child is in year 4 then an American child of the same age would be in grade 3 because they don't start school until they are 6 years old as opposed to 5 years old in the UK

as a rule, children in America start school at 5 or six years old.
adding a year sequentially for each grade therafter, you will see that most 7th grade students are between 12 and 13 years old.

Most students graduate from the 12th grade aged 17 or 18. Work back from there.
This of course excludes those who get held back or skip a grade.
