Education in Bahrain and the U.K

The education in U.K system is divided into early years ages 3–4, primary education ages 4–11, secondary education ages 11–18 and tertiary education ages 18+.Full-time education is compulsory for all children aged between 5 and 17, either at school or otherwise, with a child beginning primary education during the school year he/she turns 5.Students may then continue their secondary studies for a further two years, leading most typically to A-level qualifications. The leaving age for compulsory education was raised to 18 by the Education and Skills Act 2008. The change takes effect in 2013 for 16-year-olds and 2015 for 17-year-olds. State-provided schooling and sixth form education is paid for by taxes. U.K also has a tradition of independent schooling, but parents may choose to educate their children by any suitable means.
the education in Bahrain is nearly the same we have primary, secondary and with the same ages as will.But the different things are that we must wear uniforms in the primary, secondary not like the U.K in there secondary they can wear there own chose of cloths.They last thing is the time spend in school pre day in U.K they start at 8:00 am and finish at 3:00 or 4:00 pm and in Bahrain we start at 7:00 am and finish at 1:30 pm. 

and sorry for the first paragraph I have taken it from the internet because I did not know what to write about the education in U.K.

  1. Hi Yousif
    Thanks for admitting to copying and I understand the problem this time. I will give you information on British education that you can work on in class this Thursday. I want to know much more about education in Qatar. How many terms are there? Is there a national curriculum? What are the most important exams? Do many children go to private schools?
