We have the same here in the states.  We also have what´s called a GED. (General Education Development Test).  People can take this test who decide to drop out of high school...I guess it´s equivalent to a high school diploma...but I think more frowned upon.

More or less the same in Poland:

Kindergarten certificate

Primary school certificate (after 6 years)

Middle school certificate (after 3 years)

Secondary school certificate (after 3 or 4 years)

Finishing secondary school you may take Matriculation Exam and get Matriculation Certificate, if you were in a technical secondary school you take Occupational Exam and get a Certificate

Then

B.A.

M.A.

Ph.D.

Professor´s Degree

because we love the red tape {#lang_emotions_confused}

 

Nah, you need a certificate to get accepted into the next level - you´re admited to the next school depending on the results of the former one. With bad grades from primary school you´re unlikely to get into a good middle school etc. On each level you have about 14 subjects annually so that´s a pretty hard job. Additionally after each level you pass a national test

This is so unfair

We didn´t get any certificates at school

The only certificate I got was for Cycling Proficiency ... although I did get a pretty badge for "showing I could make a cup of tea" in the Brownies - does that count?
