Education in Britain
Education in Britain is compulsory between the ages of five and sixteen. Before five, children sometimes go to nursery schools or to private playgroups. After primary schools, at about eleven children must choose a secondary school. Children go to middle schools when they are eight, nine or ten, and move on to a secondary school at ages twelve or thirteen. The secondary schools are comprehensive, they admit pupils of all abilities. Where there are grammar schools and secondary modern schools, admission depends on a selection process based on ability. Schools are free to decide which subjects to teach. Schools must teach religious education. Schools have started to measure pupils’ progress against national standards. This evaluation includes written and practical test. Students must choose which subject they are going to take for General Certificate of Secondary Education exam (the GCSE). Students who take the GCSE receive a grade in each subject from G (the lowest) up to A (the highest).
