Schools in Britain
Ted and Mark go to a typical British school. When they were eleven, they left their
primary school and went to the secondary school. Now they are thirteen and they are
in year 8.
British schoolchildren study the same subjects and have the same lessons until they
are thirteen. At thirteen they choose the subjects they want to do for the national
GCSE (General Certificate of Secondary Education) exams. They take these exams in
year 11 (at the age of sixteen). British children should take national exams in six
subjects, although they might take more. Then they might stay at school for two more
years and study for two or more A-level1 exams. But they might leave school after
their GCSEs. Ted and Mark are doing eight subjects. They have to study English and
Maths, and they have chosen French, Physics, Biology, Chemistry, Art and Design,
and Information Technology2 . Their classmates chose different subjects so they
don’t have many lessons together even though they are still in the same form.
They’re taking their GCSE exams in June. They also do PE but there isn’t a PE
exam.
Ted and Mark go to school from Monday to Friday. School starts at 9 o’clock. There
is a 20-minute break at half past 10. They have lunch at one o’clock. A few people go
home but most of them eat lunch in the canteen.
 Afternoon lessons start at quarter to 2 and finish at quarter to 4. After school the
boys do sport. In their school pupils can also join the music group or belong to a club.
When they get home, they have to do their homework.
They like their school but Ted hates the uniform they have to wear. After school the
boys would like to go to a university but none of them has decided what they want to
study yet.
