After the age of 11, most children go to comprehensive schools of which the majority are for both boys and girls. About 90 per cent of all state-financed secondary schools far of this type. Most other children receive secondary education in grammar and secondary modern schools. Comprehensive schools were introduced in 1965. The idea of comprehensive education, supported by the Labour Party, was to give all children of whatever background the same opportunity in education. At 16 students in England and Wales take the GCSE examinations. In 1988 these examinations replacedthe GCE and O-levels which were usually passed by about 20 per cent of school students of all levels of ability in any of a range of subjects, and may involve a final examination, and assessment of workdone by the student during the two-year course, or both of these things. Some comprehensive schools, however, do not have enought academic courses for sixth-formers. students can transfer either to a grammar school or to a sixth-form college to get the courses they want. At 18 some students take A-levels GCE examination, usually in two or three subjects. It is necessary to have A-levels in order to go to a university or Polytechnic. But some pupils want to stay on at school after taking their GCSE, to prepare for a vocational course of for work rather than for A-levels examinations. Then they have to take the CPVE examination which means the CERTIFICATE OF PRE-Vocational Education. In Scotland students take the SCE examinations. A year later, they can go straight o a university. Secondary education in Northern Ireland is organized along selective lines according to childrens abilities. One can hardly say that high loss of pupils you are a working-class child at school today, the chance of your reaching the second year of a sixth-form course is probably less than that for the child of a professional parent. Besides, goverment cuts on school spending caused many difficulties

explored the city with my Kazakhstani friend, Dariga. We stareted in Republic Square and saw the independence Monument with the statue of the " Golden man" on the top. Then we went to Panfilov Park and visited the beautiful cathedral. It was built in 1907 and, apparently, it's the second tallest wooden building in the world. That evening we went back to Republic Square to see Firework display. The next day we went to the museum of a famous writer, Mukhtar Auezov. I learned about one of his play, Enlik and Kebek. It's a bit like the English play Romeo and Juliet Wiliam Shakespeare. A boy and girl From two different tribes fell in love, but their families didn't want them to be together, because the two tribes were enemies. So Enlik and Kebek ran away and lived in the mountains. Unfortunately, their families foun them - very sad, but very romantic, I suppose! Dariga has taken me top lots of different restaurants. My favourit food here is plov ( a rice , vegetable and lamd dish) and i also love sansas with fruit, honey and nuts-delicious! Dariga speaks Kazakh and Russian and English, of course. There are a lot of different nationalities living in Almaty. I've practised my German and French here too. Yesterday, a Kazakh guide took us into the mountains. We went fora long walk through the forests with beautiful views of the snow on the top of the mountains. This evening we're going to the Arasan Baths. It'll be the perfect way to relax after all this sightseeing. i can't wait to see you and show you all the photos. заранее огромное спасибо!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
