In Russia it was for me just 1-11 grades with the last 2 being optional and the 4th one being suspiciously absent.

You went from 3rd grade to 5th?

Does everyone in Russia?

Was it a year of outdoor school or something?

Netherlands:

0.5: Kindergarten - ages 4 and 5
1: Basisschool Onderbouw (elementary part one) - ages 6, 7 and 8.
1.5: Basisschool Bovenbouw (elementary part one) - ages 9, 10, 11, sometimes 12.
2. Middelbare school (High school) - Ages 12 - 16/17/18 depending on what level of education you’re going for.

0.5-1.5 is because they are usually all in the same school.
