All-through school

[6] A short, multi-year exemption was made during the implementation of the K–12 education curriculum to temporarily accommodate incoming senior high school students.

All through-schools combine primary and secondary education and may provide schooling over as wide an age range as three to nineteen years old.

It has also been argued that having pupils attend the same institution throughout their schooling makes it easier to cater to their individual needs.

Academics and activists with involvement in early childhood have criticised all-through schools as belittling the difference between a toddler and a young person entering adulthood as well as being part of a general trend of imposing overly regimented school structures on young children.

[13] However, representatives of these schools state that they often provide separate facilities for older and younger children whilst the potential for some adult-monitored interaction between young people at different points of their early lives has also been cited as a positive of the school type.
