  1. Education Around The World Courtney Castner Danielle Berry Brittany Powell

  2. Canada pt. 1 • Children are required to enter school at around the age of 6, the children are required to attend school until 16 unless they are in Ontario or New Brunswick in which the required age is 18. • The students attend classes in a semester-based system, where students take 8 classes through the year. They have many different options of classes that they are able to choose from.

  3. Canada pt. 2 • Classes can be taught in both English and French. • Several areas such as Ontario, Alberta, and Quebec contain schools that are divided by religion. • Kindergarten in the Prairie Providences is not required like many other areas around the world.

  4. England • Generally four types of schools: Community schools, Voluntary controlled schools, Voluntary Aided schools, and Foundation schools. • English schools are divided into eight types of student selection which ranges from super-selective which includes the top 10% to sub-secondary modern which students are on the lower end of the ability range.

  5. England pt. 2 • Students enter school around the age of 5, and required to attend until they are 16. Though in 2013 the age will raise to 17 and in 2015 to 18. • All schools in England have to follow a National Curriculum which holds twelve subjects including the main core such as English, Math, and Science while also including such other subjects such as Art and Design and History.

  6. Russia • The ages for the Russian school system range from 1 year old to 18. Students with parental consent can drop out of school legally at 15. • Since getting into kindergartens had become more difficult with over 40,000 kindergartens closing down after the fall of the Soviet Union, parents right after their babies are born they are placed on a list to be accepted into kindergartens.

  7. Russia pt. 2 • The grades are split from elementary (1-4), middle (5-9), and senior (10-11) is optional. • In some areas, the Russian schools are to understaffed for the students to go to class all day so some schools have double or triple shift schools. • Their elementary schools are much like the American schools, with one teacher teaching them. Once they get into secondary school however, they begin to go to different teachers for different classes.

  8. Canada pt. 3 • Liked: • students have an option of taking another year of secondary school if they wish to do so, called a “victory lap.” • classes are offered in both English and French. • if high schoolers are expelled or suspended for a period of time over 2 months or so they could attend night school at the high school. • Didn’t like: • QuÈbÈcois must attend a French School up until the end of high school unless one of their parents previously attended an English-language school somewhere in Canada (immigrants from other countries cannot use this exception). • What will work in the American system: • offering classes in different languages in order to help students further immerse themselves in a language that the students are learning. • Also the idea of the victory lap as well as focus based education.

  9. England pt. 3 • Like: That in 2013 the age of graduation will be 17 and in 2015 to 18. • Dislike: The selection of students in schools based on their ability levels, which decides which school they are to attend. • What America could use: The more of a focus on humanities or sciences.

  10. Russia pt. 3 • Liked: The grading system; pts from 1-5. • Didn’t like: The idea of the students not having a choice in their own study subjects. • What will work in the American system: I do believe that the grading system and smaller classroom sizes in certain areas would help with not only the teachers, but the students.
