Children’s education in Britain statists from nursery school. There they learn to draw, count, read and write. After nursery school children have to get primary education. A child going to school for the first time is called one year pupil, after year - two year pupil and so on. Secondary schools are usually bigger and children go there from age of 11.
After ending the school young people take the exams, they may choose between leaving school and working or continue their studying at college.
Nowadays in Britain comprehensive schools are very popular. There children can enter there without any exams. They are divided into groups and are able to focus on the study of mathematics or languages.
But before comprehensive schools were introduced in 1965 by the British government, all children took an exam at the age of 11 called "eleven- plus". Secondary modern schools gave secondary education only in name and did not prepare schoolchildren for universities, as pupils were mainly prepared for practical jobs. A lot of people in Britain thought that this system of selection at the age of 11 was unfair on many children. So comprehensive schools were introduced. But in a small number of coun- ties they still keep the old system of grammar schools.
At the age of 15 they are taking their first public exam and enter to the university.
