The British school year runs from September to the following August. The English National Curriculum is organised into year groups called Key Stages. At Thomas Keith Independent School, students are normally grouped by their date of birth, with children of the same age. However, in certain special circumstances, we can be flexible about which year your child goes into. Speak to our enrolment team to find out more.
