Their parents can choose between a state school which is free, or a private school which they have to pay for. At the ageof eleven, students startsecondary school. Students have to study English, Maths and Science. Other school subjects include modern foreign languages, history, geography, art and design technology.The school-leaving age is sixteen, but many students continuefor two extra years and take “A-levels”before they go to university.The school year starts in Septemberand the main school holidays are at Christmas, Easter and in the summer.

History tells us that the question of who is still the first to invent the phone is open. Many believe that the phone is in the modern sense was invented by Alexander Graham Bell. A native of Scotland, who lived and worked first in Canada and then in the U.S., made in 1876, it would seem impossible. He was able to give the speech sound in space with the help of electricity.Some historians argue that the German scientist Philip Rice, another 15 years before Bell made  a similar device. In order not to damage the reputation of Bell, the documents were hidden for a long time. The initiator of hiding, according to some, was an English businessman Sir Frank Gill.

The Greatest Invention in History 

Thousands of years ago in ancient Egypt, people built pyramids for the Pharoah. At that time there were no machines, so how could they move such huge stones? How could they create such splendid pyramids? How could they create such a miracle? The answer, of course, is the wheel. The wheel makes everything possible. Now, you may challenge this assertion. "The wheel is far too simple," you may say. "Inventions such as the printing press and the computer chip have done much more to change the world." I have to disagree with you. Let me explain why. 

The common uses of the wheel are obvious. Rather than travel on foot or on horse, we have learned to travel by horse-drawn carriages, cars, trains and now airplanes and rockets. The Industrial Revolution could never have occured without the wheel. Not only do industrial machines, such as we find in factories, or home appliances such as washing machines and air conditioners, depend on the wheel, even the printing press that brought learning to the masses depended on gears - toothed wheels! - to work. In other words, though the printing press was important, it simply couldn't exist without the wheel. 

The computer chip also would not be the useful device it is, without the help of the wheel. The computer chip itself may not use a wheel or gear directly, but peripheral devices such as printers and disk drives do. Without the wheel, we could in theory have a powerful computing device. However, we wouldn't be able to save our work or show it to other people! Without the invention of the wheel, the computer would be next to useless. 

So, can you imagine a world without the wheel? Can you imagine a world without long-distance travel? Can you imagine a world without a printing press to communicate the best writing in the world? Can you imagine a world with no useful computers? Everything that came after the wheel, and everything that is to come, depends on the greatest invention in history. The wheel!
