In the Philippines, kids start school in nursery and primary school then elementary school. Elementary school is from grade 1 to 6 and in some private school it's grade 1-to 7. gRADE 1 STUDENTS ARE NORMALLY 6 YEAR OLDS. so if a child starts elementary at 6 he or she then graduates at age 12. AFTER GRADUATING ELEMENTARY SCHOOL they THEN go to highschool (1st year to fourth year) normally from 12-16 years of age. AFTER GRADUATING HIGHSCHOOL THEY THEN GO TO UNIVERSITY OR COLLEGE AND TAKE A 4- 5 YEAR COURSE depends really what course they take. Most university students graduate at age 20 if they take a 4 year course.
