English term or phrase: Class 8
XX, a student who had to discontinue his education (after completing Class 8) due to poverty, got enrolled in a residential bridge course in Kadambur.

Je ne connais pas le système éducatif en Inde, je cherche à comprendre ce qu'est l'équivalent de la classe 8 en France, ou au moins quel âge aura cet élève. Cela pourrait être la troisième mais je ne suis sûre de rien.
Merci à qui pourra m'aider sur ce point.

4e


Explanation:
I agree with the previous answers and would add that class 8 would be equivalent to "4e" in the French school system.

Je rejoins les deux précédentes réponses, en ajoutant que l'âge équivaudrait à une classe de 4e.
