Pre-school and nursery education
About this education system, Chian is the same in the UK. They are all aim at 0-5 year old children to pre-school education. In pre-school, teacher will be teach children basic language and basic things. At the same time, it will be develops activities skill and cognizance skill by themselves. Let children feel the world is beautiful and not lonely. Pre-school education is very important start for each children, so it must be get the best education and look after for every children.
Primary education
Primary education is the first stage of compulsory education. It is after pre-school or nursery education and before secondary education. The primary education of UK have six year, and Chian is same. In China, this education is aim at 6-12 year old children, but it have a little difference for the UK. Because it have four nations in the UK, so each nation have each age group. In China, primary education just let children have a good development for moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetics and labour education, but in the UK, it will be pay attention to the interests of children and cultivate children's creativity and imagination.
Lower secondary education
Lower secondary education is the stage of education following primary education. Lower secondary education includes the final stage of compulsory education in China. But in the UK, it has upper secondary education after this education. The main direction of lower secondary education is the general of humanistic education. Education at is compulsory for the first three years in the UK, up to the age of 15. I think, this education is both same.
Upper secondary education includes the final stage of compulsory education in the UK, and in China is not. This education system is more flexible and offers various specialisations depending on the inclination, skills and interests of the students, and aim at age of between 15and 18. In China, study in high school just for get a best university's offer. If student not hard for this stage, it means lose a good opportunity go to university.
Higher and further education
Higher education refers to the stage of learning that occurs at universities, academies, colleges, seminaries, and institutes of technology. The higher education of UK is paying more attention to the term work and presentation skills. It will allow students to know significance of team work and developing the expression ability of students for future. About China, teacher will paying attention to the personal independence ability. This is good for individual work, but we have many team work in the furture, so just myself is not enough.
In the end, this is UK education and my country's education.
