In Germany, the students don't begin their education until they are between the ages of five and six. This is located within the public primary schools. They don't receive marks for their academic progress for two years. The parents are given a report on their child's behavior and ability within the class room environment. When they are at the age of seven they are then assessed.. Every piece of work, including tests and homework, is marked on a 40/60 per cent oral/ written basis. The marks go towards an annual school report. Wow that's unique.
