II. Основна частина уроку

Перевірка домашнього завдання:

T.: Your homework for today was to find some interesting information about education in English-speaking countries. Some pupils will present it here, the rest of the class will give me your reports after the lesson. So now we are going to listen to different information. Listen to it attentively, because I will ask some questions after each speaker.

Vera, please: In Great Britain there are different types of secondary schools. Most of them are state where education is free. But some parents choose to pay for private education. Private schools in Britain and Wales are very expensive and they are attended by about 5% of the school population. The education in public schools is of high quality, the discipline is very strict. Most of private schools are either for boys or girls. Private schools are famous not only for their perfect education but also for the right friends and contacts which are useful and successful future.

In some British schools uniform are worn by all the pupils, in others the children

can wear what they want to. Some public schools in Britain, such as Eton, have

uniforms based on what was worn over a hundred years ago.
Some private schools are very famous such as Eton, Harrow, Rugby and

Winchester. Harrow school is famous as the place where Winston Churchill was educated, as well as six other Prime Ministers of Great Britain, the poet Lord Byron and many other prominent people.

T.: And now answer my question please: What have you learnt from Vera's report? Every pupil must say something.

Let's remember the system of education in the USA. Who is ready with this information?... Please, Ann.

Ann: The American system of school education differs from the systems in other countries. There are state public schools, private elementary schools and private secondary schools. Public schools are free and private schools are fee-paying. Each state has its own system of public schools. Elementary education begins at the age of six or seven, when a child goes to the first grade (form). At the age of sixteen schoolchildren leave the elementary school and may continue their education at one of the secondary schools or high schools, as they call them. The programme of studies in the elementary school includes English, Arithmetic, Geography, History of the USA, Natural sciences and, besides, Physical Training, Singing, Drawing, wood or metal work, etc. Sometimes they learn a foreign language and general history. Besides giving general education some high schools teach subjects useful to those who hope to find jobs in industry and agriculture or who wants to enter colleges or universities. After graduating from secondary schools a growing number of Americans go on to higher education. The students do not take the same courses. During the first two years they follow a basic programme. It means that every student must select at least one course from each of the basic fields of study: English, Natural sciences, Modern languages, History or Physical education. After the first two years every student can select subjects according to his professional interest. The National Government gives no direct financial aid to the institutions of higher education. Students must pay a tuition fee. This creates a financial hardship for some people. Many of the students have to work to pay their expenses. Americans place a high value on education.

T.: Thanks, Ann. Sit down, please. And now, pupils, answer my questions:

1. What types of schools are there in the USA?

2. Are public schools free or fee-paying?

3. Do parents pay for education in private schools?

4. At what age do schoolchildren leave elementary school?

5. Does government give financial aid to the universities?

6. Must students pay a tuition fee?

Let's compare these systems of educations: in the UK and in the USA.

What do you know about the system of education in our country? Tell me please the information you know. Is the system of education in our country different or similar to the system of education in English-speaking countries?
