In sweden we go to normal school until grade 9, then we choose a gymnasium (I guess that's the Swedish version of a high school) and we go there for three years and if we want to we continue education we go to university or hög-skola as it's called in Swedish (Wich translates to "High School" funnily enough)
I'm correct right?

Yeah kinda bro
Here is the swedish school system:
Pre-school: Pre-school is like a group activity for children aged from 1 year until they start school. We call it "Dagis" here in sweden!
Pre-school class: The preschool class is a non-compulsory form of education within the public school system, designed to prepare children for compulsory school and to stimulate each child's learning! You usually learn basics of reading and writing. We call it "Förskola" here!
Compulsory school: Compulsory school is mandatory and is open to all children aged 7-16. The same standard of education is to be provided throughout the country. It's split into two (or three) parts, primary, secondary education. There is no word for it in swedish, we just split it like the key stages. Lågstadiet, mellanstadiet och högstadiet.
Upper secondary school: Every school in Sweden is required by law to offer all students who have completed compulsory school an upper secondary education. Upper secondary education is free and a non-compulsory form of school. There are a LOT of programs, all of which are 3-year programs. The programs provide a general education and eligibility to study at the university or post-secondary level. We call it "gymnasium"
Tertiary education/post secondary-school: basically university
I know all of this because I've been working with this and comparing it to other school systems, for instance the school system in England!
