7th year Explanation: In the wikipedia article explaining the Swiss education system (which appears to include a wide variety of sub-systems which vary by canton), the word "degré" is used in the tables to indicate how many years a given educational cycle involves. The Swiss federal statistics article also uses the term to indicate an educational year, in the formulation "Degré primaire 1-2". It seems that rather than specifying "grades" (US) or "years" (UK), they specify the "degree" being earned, followed by the age of most students at a given stage of the degree (so, Degré primaire 1-2 = infant school for 1-2 year olds, which is an obligatory part of primary school in certain cantons but not in others). https://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/fr/home/statistiques/education-... https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Système_éducatif_suisse https://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/fr/home/statistiques/education-science/institutions-formation/ecoles-degre-formation.html https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syst%C3%A8me_%C3%A9ducatif_suisse |
