I see you are informed about British schooling. And now youʼll listen to some more information about the educational system of Great Britain. Gleb will present it for you and you should complete the table with the words and numbers from the box.

1)      Schools in Britain

Most children in Great Britain start primary school at the age of 5. At the age of 11 they go to secondary school. There are some types of secondary schools in England:

Grammar schools, Modern schools and Comprehensive schools. Children stay at secondary school to the age of 16. And at 16 in England they take the examination - that’s the General Certificate of Secondary Education. After these exams 30% of students leave school. The others study for 2 more years. And then take A-level (Advanced Level examinations). About 20% of 18 year-olds go to universities. Another 20% go on to other kinds of education and training.

18		20% of 18 – year – olds go to ---------- .

Iʾd like to add: After primary school boys and girls take their exams and enter the secondary schools. At the secondary school children have 3 “core” subjects (What are they? Your opinion): English, Maths and Science. And pupils take exams at the age of 7, 11 and 14.

Now, itʼs turn of Pashas story about school day. Listen to him carefully and then youʾll do the second task in your sheets of paper. Try to put the correct information in each column.

2)      School life in Britain

Students in Britain go to school from Monday to Friday and school starts at 9 o’clock. Most of schools are mixed – they are for boys and girls. At most secondary schools students wear a uniform. British students have a wide choice of subjects: Science, IT, History, Geography, English Literature, Religion, Foreign Languages and many others. They have lessons in the morning and a break of an hour for lunch. School finishes at 4 o’clock. After school some students do other activities like sport: football, netball, rugby, badminton. Some students learn music.

92% of British Schools are state schools, they are free. The government pays – not the parents. 8% of schools are independent or private. The parents pay for their education. Some of these independent schools are boarding schools, and the students live at the schools. Eton is a very famous independent school near Windsor.
