Germany at a secondary school, grades 5โ€“13:

  • from grade 5: Latin (at least 6 years)
  • from grade 7: English (at least 4 years)
  • from grade 9: French or Ancient Greek (optional)
  • from grade 11: Spanish or Italian or Hebrew (optional)

That was about 20 years ago and learning Latin, let alone Ancient Greek, had become the exception even then.
