An Ideal
school.
What should it be?
Some facts about me.
My name is Kseniya
and I am an ordinary
girl. I am fond of music
and reading is my cup
of tea. I study at
school № 27 in Orel.
My favorite subjects
are: Geometry,
Algebra and Russian.
At our last English
lesson my teacher
asked me to make a
project about an ideal
school. So let's start!
Education in Britain
At our last English lessons we spoke
about education in Britain. We
learned many interesting facts about
it. For example: in Great Britain
school have names, not numbers.
Now we know that children in Britain
do not have to go to school until they
reach the age of five and only very
few go to nursery schools before
that. Then pupils transfer to
secondary schools which are usually
much larger than primary schools
and they take pupils from the age of
11 up to 18. There are many kinds of
secondary schools: comprehensive
schools, grammar schools,
secondary modern schools, church
schools, City Technology Colleges,
boarding schools and public schools.
Comprehensive schools
I want to tell you about a
comprehensive school
which takes pupils of all
abilities without any
exams. It is the most
popular type of school in
Britain nowadays.
Comprehensive schools
offer a wide choice of
subjects from art and craft
to sciences and computer
studies. Pupils at
comprehensive schools
are quite often put into
"sets" for such subjects as
mathematics and
languages according to
their abilities.
My school
As I have already said I study at
school № 27. It was founded in
1957. Since that time my school
hasn't changed a lot. There are 4
floors in the school. The ground
floor is for gum and a canteen, the
1st floor is for primary school, the
2nd is for secondary school, the
3rd is for high school. The school
motto is "Leave and Learn".
That's a pity, that our school
hasn't got a comfortable school
building and a good sports ground
fitted with everything necessary.
And once it happened so that our
class didn't find a classroom and
we had our lesson in the canteen.
My teachers
In our school all teachers
are very good and welltrained. Some of them are
strict and some of them are
kind, some of them are
cheerful and some of them
are gloomy, but all of them
are fare, clever and skillful.
All teachers at our school
are understanding and
caring. They teach us very
well and they try to give us
all the knowledges they
have. And we try to help
our teachers: we do our
hometasks regularly and
learn all the things they told
us about.
My classmates
The pupils of my school are very
eager and willing. They like our
school very much. My classmates
are very friendly. Safronova
Inessa Nikolaena is our Form
Tutor. She is very kind and nice
woman. She cares about us very
well. We like her very much. More
then that the headmistress in our
school is a very kind and clever
woman. She creates many
effective rules. So, as you see the
teachers in our school are very
kind and understanding, the
pupils are very eager and willing
and it creates a comfortable and
friendly atmosphere in our school.
I like my school very much, but it
isn't ideal.
An Ideal school
Now I want to tell you
about a school of my
dream. I think that an ideal
school should have a
comfortable school
building, a good library with
video and audio materials
and a big garden with
flowerbeds and
greenhouses. A good
canteen with plenty of nice
food is also very useful
because healthy diet is
very important for children.
Psychological help and a
good medical centre are
necessary to support
children's health.
A building of an ideal school.
I think that in an ideal
school there should be 6
floors: the 1st should be for
swimming pool, the 2nd
one should be for primary
school, the 3rd floor should
be for secondary school,
the 4th one should be for
high school and the 5th
floor should be for an
assembly hall. The ground
floor should be for a gum,
cloakroom and canteen. In
front of the school there
should be a beautiful
garden with flowerbeds.
Goodbye!
So, as you see, education
system in England is a bit
different, than education
system in Russia. But
whatever system it can be
eager pupils and caring
teachers, comfortable
school building, friendly
atmosphere are also
important for any school.
Now I have finished my
project about an ideal
school. I hope that you like
it. And now I say goodbye
to you!
