School

A school is a type of educational institution. The range of institutions
covered by the term varies from country to country.

In the United Kingdom, the term school refers primarily to pre-university
institutions, and these can for the most part be divided into primary
schools (sometimes further divided into infant school and junior school) and
secondary schools. School performance is monitored by Her Majesty's
Inspectorate of Education.

In the United States, the term school refers to any institute of education,
at any level, and covers all of the following:

   * preschool (for toddlers)
   * kindergarten
   * elementary school
   * middle school
   * high school
   * college
   * university
   * post-graduate training

In parts of Europe, a gymnasium is a school of secondary education.

The King's School, in Canterbury in the south east of England, may be the
oldest surviving school in the world.

In Japan, sho-gakkou (lit. small school), chu-gakkou (lit. middle school),
kou-kou (lit. high school) mean elementary school, middle school and high
school respectively.
