Culture Difference

Ello, I'm stupid American and was wondering what the education system for you guys was.

Here in America it's basically

Kindergarden (some places)
1-6 :Elementary
7-8 :Middle School
9-12: High School

And then for higher learning at college (I'm guessing University for you)

2 years - Associate
4 years - Bacheloret (no clue how it's spelled even though that's what I was going for... it's okay though cause I'm an art major ;))
And after that I really have no clue.
