Слайд 4 Provenance
In the UK there
is a huge variety of schools. In various directories , on the internet, magazine and newspaper articles different criteria for classifying schools may be used. Common type of school in the UK - is boarding schools (Boarding School), in which students are taught and live at the school. First boarding schools appeared in Britain in the early Middle Ages, mainly in monasteries. In the XII century the Pope ordered all Benedictine monasteries to open charity schools at the monasteries. Later on education at such schools became fee-paying . Although aristocratic families preferred home schooling to convent school, eventually the belief that adolescents, regardless of their social background are more useful to learn together with their peers was spread.

Слайд 11 Classification of schools by sex enrolled
School for girls
School for boys
Слайд 12Schools for girls
School for girls - where only girls are trained.
Arguments in favor of separate education for girls are as follows:
• Girls develop physically and emotionally somewhat faster than boys, and in them they do not have to adjust to the "laggards" classmates.
• Girls tend to have greater self-organization and better discipline, groups of girls are better organized and focused on learning.
• «amorous affairs" does not detract from the study.
• Girls grow independent and do not expect someone to do for them "unfeminine job."
• Competitive Wednesday has little appeal, and sometimes depress girls who appreciate the support and teamwork much more.
Слайд 13Schools for boys
School for Boys - where boys are taught only.
There are many arguments in favor of separate training of the boys:
• Boys by nature are more mobile and active, and they need a lot of movement, sports and outdoor games for normal development
• Boys have slightly different criteria of success than girls (not obedience and leadership, not "smoothing sharp corners" and audacity, etc.).
• The competitive environment is necessary for self-expression and boys active development.
Слайд 14Mixed schools
Mixed schools - where both boys and girls are taught
together. There are many supporters of coeducation, argueing their position by the following statements:
• Children from an early age learn how to communicate and cooperate with members of the opposite sex.
• Representatives of the opposite sex stimulate ambition and enhance motivation for self-development.
Слайд 15gcse
GCSE is assessed on eight point scale: A *-ABCDEFG, A *
- is the highest score, and G - the lowest. There is also Unclassified or unsatisfactory mark, in the case of getting this evaluation in the exam, it is believed that he was not handed over.
Слайд 16A-level
Assessing 'A'-level:
Grading A-level is quite complicated, in addition to the
literal scale, there are such things as a raw mark and an uniform mark.
For details, see the website
In the UK, by the way, grading system is quite different.
First, there are no mark books
Secondly,nobody knows a mark immediately. Its impossible to know the result on the day of the exam. Plow blindly through.
And then there is a meeting with the curator, where all the results for the "session" and for the entire semester are announced.
For the entire semester, you can achieve a maximum of 100 points.
Слайд 17School uniform
School uniforms is used in many European countries. School uniform
defines belonging to a particular institution in some countries, while in others is recognized as national. It should be noted that England was the legislator of tradition of wearing uniforms. The first school uniform in England, which appeared in the mid-sixteenth century, was sewn from blue material. In the manufacture of uniforms this color was used because he had to teach a child to be humble. The advantage to this fact was that material was also cheap. On the historical scale Britain at that time was quite a big country, where wearing of uniforms became mandatory. This was due to the fact that Britain was a colonial country (Ireland, Australia, Cyprus and others). Later school uniform was left in a large number of institutions.
Слайд 18School uniform
For a long period of time the boys in the
UK as a uniform wear the following: it was a blazer jacket type, which was put under the gray flannel shirt (in summer or in honor of a holiday they wore a white shirt); depending on the time of the year - dark grey trousers or the same colour long shorts , grey socks, conservative dark blue coat and black shoes (boots), in addition there was a chill pullover having triangular cut. Naturally it was the presence of the logo of the school institution, which was placed on the company's cap and the tie. Based on the above, it turns out that the concept of the school uniform included not just one suit, but it was outerwear, as well as small parts down to the socks. The UK honors its traditions with a special mood, so wearing a uniform will always be one of the elements already well-established way of life.
