Canadian writing a CV for a British Job, anything I should know?

Are there any formatting/content differences between a canadian resume and a british CV? I am applying to a few jobs in the UK and just want to make sure I match what they are looking for

British people are obsessed with high school grades. Even after you've completed a masters or phd HR departments will still expect to see your high school results on your CV, and if they are not there they will ask you about them.

Wrong.
