agree  Mark Edmundson: This is a strange one as 4th and 5th form no longer exist in the English state system. If you are talking about years 4-5, they are primary school 9-10 year olds approximately.Even the English private system uses lower fifth and upper fifth as a rule.

  -> Interesting... but I still think that if the phrasing "4th and 5th form" are used, then we must be talking about "Troisièmes et Secondes"
