United Kingdom teacher account request has "middle school" #6352

Open ghost opened 2 years ago

ghost commented 2 years ago

Steps to Reproduce

Go to https://scratch.mit.edu/educators/register/ and pick UK. Do the steps until you get to the one where you work. There is middle school as an option(https://u.cubeupload.com/Cruncherbones/20211130.png/) even though we don't have middle school. Could this maybe be fixed since we just go straight from primary (elementary) to high school (grade 6/year 7 to grade 10/year 11) and a teacher may be confused when they see middle school.

Also, if a UK teacher was teaching year 8 (grade 7) and wanted to make a teacher account, would they pick middle school (they are teaching "middle schoolers" but aren't in one) or high school (obviously meant for grade 9+ students, but they are in a high school) so this could also cause confusion

I am not marking this "help wanted" since localizing this list of organizations would require design work.

Maybe Scratch could find a way to detect that if the location says UK then there wouldn't be middle school.

How else are they going to implement it? That's obviously what they would do.
