It is very common. My son did and like you I was upset. Then I found out it is common practice here. It could also be because of his birthday? When is it?

Hmm, so his birthday doesn't effect him. My son is Novebmer 1st and he was the youngest of the year above. Now he is the oldest of the year below but my son did it when he was 6 so it didn't effect him much.
Could it be so he starts studying for a year and also to settle in rather than going to straight in to exam year.
I don't have any experience of secondary school years yet, but I have known other kids start a year below where they should be in primary school.
International schools are more adept to kids moving country.
Our daughter did not lose a year when she enrolled in Verdala.
