the beginning of secondary school, if that phrase is more known outside US


Doesn't help if secondary school starts at a different age!


Two years after the begininng of secondary school; in general lower-secondary starts around age 11, and in the US it usually begins with Junior High which is often, but not always, 7th grade,


In the UK ages 12-13 are typically Year 7 of secondary school.


Year 7's regular age range is 11-12: you're 11 going into the September that the school year starts and will be 12 by the end of the following August.
