[edit] Template:Education infobox

I created a template, Template:Education infobox which can give a quick at a glance demographics table for education articles. See its implementation at Education in the United States and feel free to help improve the template.--naryathegreat | (talk) 01:00, August 7, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] About the educational system

There is something wrong in the Educational system in the article. The Chinese educational system is six years for Primary, three for junior high and three for senior high. (a so-called 3-3 system of Middle school). The British system is six years for Primary and five years (3 for junior and 2 for senior high) for Secondary. And there is an optional choice for students to choose whether take Form 6 in a Secondary school or take the pre-U in University of Macau And this is a so-called 3-2-1 system. There is no Form 7 in Macau.

The DSEJ prefers the 3-3 system to 3-2-1 system. A Form 5-graduate student is not recognized as a senior high school graduation by the DSEJ. As a result there are many school with the 3-2-1 system changing into 3-3 system.--HeiChon~XiJun 08:20, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
