What wonderful schools in the UK and Iceland. They don’t worry about what great schools there are in the UK and Iceland, but what to do with a student who sits under a desk at the beginning of a class and can’t get out of there.
ENGLAND EDUCATION SYSTEM General secondary education in the UK is for all children between the ages of 5 and 16. The school year lasts from September to July and is divided into 3 trimesters: Autumn trimester: from early September to mid-December. It is also known as the Michaelmas Term (in private schools). Spring trimester: from early January to mid-March or late (depending on Easter time). It is also called Lent Term. Summer Trimester: From early April to mid-July. A short break (called a half term) is scheduled in the middle of each trimester and begins in late October, similar to mid-February and late May. There are two types of schools in the UK: public schools and private schools.
PUBLIC SCHOOLS Public schools are provided by the state and run by local educational institutions. But many public schools are also trying to find private sources of funding. In this case, they are called subsidy schools. Parents pay nothing to teach in public schools. In other words, secondary education (from the age of 11) is compulsory for all, which means that children are accepted regardless of their level of education and ability. In such schools, mostly boys and girls are taught together. However, there are schools for gifted children that are selected based on exam results and have almost separate schools of instruction. Not all public schools are designed to be full-time. One of the main cultural features of the UK is its famous architectural monuments. Once upon a time, England became a prestigious architectural center and its buildings reflected many styles. The famous Ceterbury Cathedral, now under UNESCO protection, was built on the site of St. Canterbury Augustine held a mass baptism of the local population - the first Christians in the future territory of the United Kingdom. Misty Albion’s architecture is closely linked to the country’s history and political initiatives. The Renaissance did not bring about a spectacular event as it did on the mainland, but classicism became a major center in the construction of buildings and structures in the late seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
