I. True/False :
Every child in Britain must by-law receive full time education from the age of five to sixteen. Many parents send their children to state school where the tuition and the equipment, including textbooks and exercise books are free. Only about five percent of children go to private fee-paying school; first, preparatory school for children up to thirteen, and then public schools-very expensive secondary schools such as Harrow, Rugby and Winchester.
Some children, before going to school, go to kindergartens, offically called nursery schools. Boys and girls are educated together there. There are also some single-schools, particularly among independent (non-state) ones.
Under the old system children attended primary school (from five to eleven), which was follwed by a secondary school course (from eleven to fifteen or over). At eleven, every child had to sit for the eleven-plus examination. It consisted of tests in English, arithmetic and intelligence-test. Those with the highest marks (about twenty percent of the children) went to grammar school. The others went to technical school.
