Here in the Netherlands you go from elementary to middle school. In middle school you still get everything the first 3 years, then after that you can pick a general direction (medical/biological, creative/culture, technical, economical) then you still get mostly every subject because middle school is supposed to prepare you for college. You can still drop a few subjects though. Like you don't have to do both French AND German if you're going in a technical direction. And you don't have to do physics or chemistry if you're going in a cultural direction. Then after finishing middle school you go to University if you's a smart kid. Otherwise you go to HBO or MBO or just straight into society working. Don't know what I can compare HBO and MBO to in America/Britain. At MBO, HBO and Uni you don't get any sort of general education, it's all just focused on getting your bachelors degree.

tl;dr: We only get general education until the age of 15, because until that age kids have no idea what they're gonna do later and they need to be prepared for every possible follow-up education. After that you can focus on whatever.
Interesting. So how does high school, or whatever it's called there work? The kids pick a path and the school gives them classes that put them on that path?
IT'S CHEESE
