This varies widely depending upon what country and what culture you are asking about. In the United States most individuals remain in school until graduation at age 17 or more commonly 18; similar numbers hold across most developed countries. In developing countries the underserved populations (typically poor, rural, minority, culturally disadvantaged populations) may not send female children to school at all and males may drop out at ages 8 to 12.
