2nd grade

After first grade

Second grade is the year of schooling that follows first grade, typically for children around seven years old.

The term extends to describe anything at that level: 2nd grade math, a 2nd grade classroom.

In casual speech, calling something "second grade" suggests it's elementary or unsophisticated.
