| | Formal education in the UK is a structured process, starting at early years learning and continuing through to higher education at university. Some aspects of the educational system are mandatory, whereas others are optional. At present, children in the UK must start full-time education from the age of 5 and remain until the age of 16.

Many students remain at school until 18, as there are specific exams to be obtained that are required for a subsequent university placement.
