Firstly, The UK and China have different education background. For example,in Britain,children between 5—6 years old are obliged to attend school. Childrem betweem 5—11 go to primary shool(state schools; co-educational or mixed schools). Children between 11—19 go to secondary schools(90% of them are enrolled to comprehensive schools without reference to their academic abilities). It’s compulsory. Some children choose to attend grammar schools at the age of 11 through 11 plus examination.
In China, Children begin to go to school at the age of seven, it takes them for six years to finish primary school. After primary school, the students will go to junior middle school without having to pass to the exam. Education at this level is compulsory, junior middle school education lasts for three years. Turning now to senior middle school. When junior middle school education comes to end, the students are screened by exam in two ways. Some students expect to enter to college, they enter to senior middle school. The other want to work, they attend to professional school. For senior middle school students, it takes them for three years. For professional school students, it takes them for two to three years. Regarding college, senior middle school graduates have to pass competitive exam, they enter to college. The college education takes them for 4 to 10 years.
Secondly, There are many different education methods between China and UK, such as home work. Chinese high school students always have a lot of homework,which may be the same kind of questions, to make more practice, so most of the time students spend more time on assignment, but in this way students can finish the exam quickly with high score.
Thirdly, The difference values between Chinese students and British students. Chinese students have much more pressure to achieve top marks and so enter top universities. The UK educational system has changed because they found that they had so many people with degrees who only wanted professional work, but who was going to fix the lights when they were not working or drive the taxis?
UK students usually start school at 9am and finish at 3.30pm, leaving them plenty of time to be creative, play sport and learn about life in general. All of the UK educational systems recognize the importance of teaching the young about their future lives as adults and the responsibilities they face. UK students do not have to compete to enter universities.
Finally, I hope that China and Britain's education system can put their respective advantages combined, which can make students all over the world obtain good education!
