Education
Sark generally follows the education system of England.
Sark has one school, the Sark School, which takes residents from the ages of 4 to 15. Pupils wishing to obtain a GCSE or A-level qualification often finish their education in Guernsey or in England. Though, since 2006, a limited number of GCSEs have been offered to pupils at Sark School.
