There are 10 grades of school in the Swilatian system, with students entering first grade at age 6. As the system in swilatia is very decentralised, this is not oficially divided into any stages, but in most places it will be divided into Szkoła Podstawowa (Primary School, 1st to 4th grade), Szkoła Średnia (Middle School, 5th to 7th grade), and Szkoła Wyższa (High School, 8th to 10th grade). The school year follows a normal calendar year, it begins in January and ends in November. The entire months of April, August, and December are off, as are national holidays.
