Education in G. Britain
Great Britain doesn’t have a written constitution, so there are no constitutional provisions for education. The system of education is determined by the national Education Acts.
Schools in England are supported from public funds paid to the local education authorities. These local education authorities are responsible for organizing the schools in their areas.
English children must go to school when they are five, first to infant schools where they learn the first steps in reading, writing and using numbers.
When children leave infant school, at the age of 7 they go to junior schools until they are 11 years of age. Their school subjects include English, arithmetic, history, geography, nature study, swimming, music, art, religious instruction and organized games.
The junior classroom often looks like a workshop, especially when the pupils are. working in groups making models or doing other practical work.
Pupils are streamed, according to their ability to learn, into А, В, С and D streams. The least gifted are in the D stream. Formerly towards the end of their fourth year the pupils wrote their Eleven Plus Examination. On the result of this examination they go to a secondary school of a certain type.
Children can receive secondary education in comprehensive, technical, grammar and modern schools. After the age 11, most children go to comprehensive schools of which majority are both boys and girls.
About 90 percent of all slate- financed secondary schools are of this type. Most other children receive secondary education in grammar and secondary modern schools.
Some children go technical schools. It teaches many general subjects. Children in technical schools study such practical subjects as woodwork, metalwork, needlework, shorthand (stenography) and typing.
About 5 percent of elementary school — leavers in Britain go to secondary7 modern schools. Modern schools do not provide complete secondary education. As the pupils are considered to be interested in “practical” knowledge only, study programs are rather limited in comparison with other secondary schools. Some modern schools do not teach foreign languages. In modern schools pupils are also streamed according to their “Intelligence”.
The grammar school is a secondary school taking about 3 percent of children offering a full theoretical secondary education including foreign languages and students can choose which subjects and languages they wish to study.
In most of them there are food, chemistry and physics mainly children of poorer families, leave the school after taking a five —year course. Then they may take the General Certificate of Secondary Education at the ordinary level. The others continue their studies for another two or three years to obtain the General Certificate of Secondary Education at the advance level, which allows them to enter the University.
The comprehensive school combines in one school the courses of all three types of secondary schools: so the pupils can study any subject which is taught in these schools. Their member is growing: there are more than two thousand of them now. They are of different types: all of them preserve some form of streaming, but pupils may be moved from one stream to another.
There are many schools in Britain which are controlled financially by the state. They are private schools, separate for boys and girls. The biggest and most important of them are public schools charging high fees and they train young people for political, diplomatic, military and religious service. The doors of Oxford and Cambridge, the best English universities, are open to the public school — leavers.
