In [[New Zealand]] middle schools are known as "intermediate schools." They generally cover years 7 and 8 (formerly known as Forms 1 to 2). Students are generally aged between 10 and 13. There are full primary schools which also contain year 7 and 8 with students continuing to secondary school at year 9 (formerly known as Form 3).<ref>{{cite web|title=Schools/Homepage – Te Kete Ipurangi (TKI)|trans-title=Schools/Homepage – Internet Marketing (TKI)|url=http://www.tki.org.nz/Schools/(page)/search-results?schoolName=&regionId=&schoolTypeId=20&schoolAuthId=&genderId=&medium=&boarding=&Search=Search|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180317031858/http://www.tki.org.nz/Schools/(page)/search-results?schoolName=&regionId=&schoolTypeId=20&schoolAuthId=&genderId=&medium=&boarding=&Search=Search|archive-date=17 March 2018}}</ref> Some secondary schools also include years 7 and 8.<ref>{{cite web|title=Schools/Homepage – Te Kete Ipurangi (TKI)|trans-title=Schools/Homepage – Internet Marketing (TKI)|url=http://www.tki.org.nz/Schools/(page)/search-results?schoolName=&regionId=&schoolTypeId=30&schoolAuthId=&genderId=&medium=&boarding=&Search=Search}}</ref>{{citation needed|date=July 2012}}
