The system of education in any country is aimed at
developing a personality for the good of the individual
and society as a whole.
Pre-school education in England begins at the age of
3 or 4. Around half of the children at this age attend
nursery schools or playgroups mostly organised by
parents. Children of thi s age need care as well as
education. That's why kids play a lot, learn to listen
attentively and to behave.
Compulsory primary education begins at the age of
five in England, Wales and Scotland and at four in Northern Ireland. Children start their school career in an
infant school. Lessons start at 9 a. m. and are over at
4 p. m. They are taught «3 R's»: Reading, wRiting,
aRithtnetic. Pupils have a lot of fun at school, drawing,
reading, dancing or singing.
When they are 7 pupils move to a junior school, which
lasts four years till they are 11. They study a lot of
subjects: English, Mathematics, Science, History, Geography along with Technology, Music, Art and Physical
education
Most of children (over 90 per cent) go to state schools
where education is free. Only a small proportion of them
attend private (Public) or independent schools. Parents
have to pay for the education at these schools. The fees
are high and only some families can afford it. So such
schools are for the representatives of the high class of England. The most notable Public schools are Eton, Harrow, Winchester, Rugby.
Secondary education begins at 11. The majority of
secondary schools are Comprehensive schools where boys
and girls study together. Besides, parents can take their
sons and daughters to Grammar schools or Secondary
Modern schools.
Grammar schools provide an academic course from 11
to 18. They prepare pupils for colleges and universities.
Many children of working class families go to Modern
schools. They give a very limited education. Pupils get
instruction in woodwork, metalwork, sewing, shorthand,
typing and cooking. After finishing such a school a pupil becomes an unskilled worker.
The Comprehensive Schools have their own «Gramт а г school* classes and *Modern classes*
Every pupil has to choose a set of subjects to learn. If
he takes up Art he will study English Literature, Music,
Art, Drama and foreign languages. If he is good at exact
and natural sciences, he will learn Science: Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Geography, Economics
and Technical Drawing.
The British government encourages careers education
in the country. That's why secondary schools try to break
down the barriers between education and business. They
set up close links with firms to allow their students to
take part in business activities.
At around 16 years old teenagers take some exams and
coursework to get General Certificate of Education. Those
who choose to stay on at school usually study for two
further years to pass A level (Advanced level) exams.
These exams will give them a chance to enter the
university.
