the educational system of g.b. is extremely complex and bewildering.it is very difficult to generalize particular types of schools as schoolsdiffer from one to the other. the department of education and science isresponsible for national educational policy, but it doesn't employ teacher or prescribe curricula or text books.

each school has it's own board of governors consisting of teachers, parents, local politicians, members of local community, businessmen and sometimes pupils. according to the law only one subject is compulsory. it is religious instruction.

schooling for children is compulsory from 5 to 16, though some provision is made for children under 5 and some pupils remain at school after 16 to prepare for higher education.

the state school system is usually divided into 2 stages (secondary and primary).the majority of primary schools are mixed.they are subdivided into infant schools (ages 5 to 7),and junior schools (ages 7 to11). in junior schools pupils were often placed in a,b,c or d-streams, according to their abilities. under the pressure of progressive parents and teachers the 11+ examination has now been abolished in most parts of the country. there are several types of schools in g.b.grammar schools provide an academical cause for selected pupils from the age of 11 to 18. only those children who have the best results are admitted to these schools. they give pupils a high level of academic education which can lead to the university.

technical schools offer a general education with a technical bias and serve those pupils who are more mechanically minded. the curriculum includes more lessons of science and mathematics. secondary modern schools were formed to provide a non-academic education for children of lesser attainment. the curriculum includes more practical subjects. comprehensive schools bring about a general improvement in the system of secondary education.
