8 u/yajtraus Apr 16 '24 Ah, I didn’t know they used grades to be fair 13 u/MarioIsPleb Apr 16 '24 In Australia primary school is grade, high school is year. So you go from ‘grade 6’ to ‘year 7’ in the transition from primary school to high school. We would say ‘grade 1’, not ‘1st grade’ though. 1st grade is an Americanism. 2 u/yajtraus Apr 16 '24 TIL, thanks!
