在权力分配方面，教育和科学部只是进行宏观调控， 地方一级才对学校具有经营与管理的实权，他们不是 上下级的从属关系，而是一种“伙伴”关系。
英国教育行政制度概述
地方教育行政 英国现行地方政府体制，以都市郡的区、非都市郡、

I. General IntroductionMap of British Isles1. Location and the Four NationsThe full name of the UK is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It is made up of four nations: England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales. It is located to the northwest of continental Europe, separated by the English Channel. Geographically, it is an island country, covering an area of about 244,019 km2, and consists of Great Britain and northeastern part of Ireland, together with many small islands of British Isles.Great Britain accounts for over 90% of the country’s tota l landmass. It is the largest island off the northwestern coast of mainland Europe with England, Scotland and Wales on it. Ireland is the second largest island of British Isles located to the northwest of Great Britain. It is divided into two parts: Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland (an independent country).England is the largest part of the UK and occupies most of the southern two thirds of Great Britain. The total area of England is 130,410 km2 with a population of around 53.9 million (Mid-2013 estimated), which covers more than 84% of the total UK population. It is the most populous and highly urbanized part of the UK. London, the capital of the UK and England, as well as the seat of government, is located in its southeastern part.Scotland is the second largest and most mountainous part of the UK in the north of Great Britain. Compared with that of England, the population density is quite low. There are only 5.3 million people with an area of 78,789 km2. Edinburgh, its largest city, is the capital of Scotland. Scotland is famous for its beautiful natural scenery, such as Scottish Highlands1and Loch Ness2, as well as many historical places, like the Edinburgh Castles.Wales is on the western side of central southern Great Britain. The total area of Wales is 20,779 km2, which accounts for 1/4 parts of the UK. It is also a mountainous part of Great Britain, particularly in the north and central regions. The southeast region is the most built up region of Wales, and the majority of its population live there and a large proportion of its industry is based there. Its capital city, Cardiff, is also in this region.Northern Ireland lies in the northeast of the island of Ireland, covering14,139 km2, which constitutes 1/6 of the island. It is the smallest part among the four nations of the UK, as well as the second sparsely populated part after Scotland. The capital is Belfast, the largest city in Northern Ireland both in population and in area. It is the center for government, economic, arts, higher education, business, law of Northern Ireland. Additionally, it is the birthplace of Titanic, and voted one of the world’s top destinations.2. ClimateThe overall climate in the UK is temperate maritime, which means that it is mild with temperatures neither much lower than 0℃in winter nor much higher 32℃in summer. Generally, the UK has warm summers and cool winters, with July and August as the warmest month, and January and February as the coldest. However, due to the influence of Gulf Stream3, the summers are cooler than those in continent while the winters are milder. Normally, the temperature in summer is around 20℃，with the high rarely going above 30℃. The average temperature in winter is around 0℃and seldom go below -10℃even in the most northern part of the country.Meanwhile, since Britain is an island country and surrounded by the sea, the climate is considerably changeable compared with other countries. Since the variable climate changing day to day, it is hard for people to predict what the weather will be like the next day. Additionally, the unique geographical position is also the reason for the dampness of the climate. The rainfall is fairly distributed throughout the year. Although it does not rain every day, it is always advisable for people to bring an umbrella or waterproof clothing every day.II. History1. The Founding of the NationThe recorded history of the UK begins with the Roman invasion in 55BC. In 55 and 54BC, Britain was twice invaded by Julius Caesar and his Roman troops. However, it was not until 43AD that the Roman led by Claudius I finally successfully invaded and Britain became part of the Roman Empire. The native Celtic were driven to the mountain regions of Scotland and Wales, which remained unconquered by the Romans.The Romans have great impact on many aspects of the British culture. The Roman civilization was introduced to the Britain during this period. For example, Roman style baths and temples were built, cities like London and towns were constructed, and the system of government was also introduced. With the decline of the Roman Empire, when the Germanic troops attacked Rome in 410 A.D., the Romans had to withdraw in order to protect their own nation, which led to the end of Roman occupation.After the leave of the Romans, three groups of Germanic tribes called the Jutes, the Angles and the Saxons came to Britain from the European continent in the mid-4th century. They conquered different regions of Britain:1Scottish Highlands：苏格兰高地，是对苏格兰高地边界断层以西和以北的山地的称，被认为是欧洲风景最优美的地区。

英语国家概况期末考试英国教育体制作文The education system in the United Kingdom is known for its strong emphasis on academic excellence and a well-rounded education.英国的教育体制以强调学术卓越和全面教育而闻名。
From a young age, children in the UK are encouraged to develop a love for learning and critical thinking skills.从小，英国的孩子们就被鼓励培养对学习的热爱和批判性思维能力。
One of the unique features of the UK education system is the presence of independent schools, which are privately funded institutions that offer a high standard of education.英国教育体制的一个独特特点是私立学校的存在，这些学校是由私人资助的机构，提供高水平的教育。
These schools often have smaller class sizes, more resources, and a wider range of extracurricular activities compared to state-funded schools.与公立学校相比，这些学校通常拥有较小的班级规模、更多的资源和更广泛的课外活动。
However, access to independent schools is often limited to those who can afford the high tuition fees, leading to criticisms of elitism and inequality within the education system.然而，私立学校的学费通常较高，只有富有的家庭才能负担得起，这导致对教育体制内精英主义和不平等的批评。

英语国家概况期末考试英国教育体制作文全文共3篇示例，供读者参考篇1The Education System in the United KingdomAs a student living in the UK, I have experienced the British education system firsthand from the earliest years through to higher education. The UK has a robust and well-structured educational framework that aims to provide quality learning opportunities for all children and young adults. In this essay, I will delve into the intricacies of the UK's education system, highlighting its key features, strengths, and potential areas for improvement.The Early Years: Nursery and Primary EducationThe journey through the UK education system typically begins with nursery or pre-school education, which is optional but widely encouraged for children aged 3 to 4 years old. This early start aims to foster social skills, introduce basic learning concepts, and prepare children for the more structured environment of primary school.Primary education in the UK is compulsory for children aged 5 to 11 and is divided into two stages: Key Stage 1 (ages 5-7) and Key Stage 2 (ages 7-11). During these formative years, students are introduced to core subjects such as English, Mathematics, Science, History, Geography, and Art. The curriculum is designed to develop fundamental skills in literacy, numeracy, and critical thinking.One strength of the primary education system in the UK is the emphasis on personalized learning and support. Teachers strive to identify individual student needs and adapt their teaching methods accordingly. Additionally, regular assessments and standardized tests, such as the Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 SATs (Standard Assessment Tests), help track student progress and identify areas for improvement.Secondary Education: A Diverse LandscapeUpon completing primary education, students transition to secondary school, typically between the ages of 11 and 16. The secondary education system in the UK is divided into Key Stage 3 (ages 11-14) and Key Stage 4 (ages 14-16).During Key Stage 3, students continue to study a broad range of subjects, including the core subjects of English, Mathematics, and Science, as well as additional subjects likeModern Foreign Languages, History, Geography, Art, Music, and Physical Education. This comprehensive curriculum aims to provide a well-rounded education and allow students to explore their interests and aptitudes.At the end of Key Stage 4, students take the General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) examinations, which are nationally recognized qualifications that assess their performance in various subjects. The GCSE results play a crucial role in determining a student's future educational and career path.One notable aspect of the UK secondary education system is the diversity of school types available. Students can attend state-funded schools (such as community schools, academies, or faith schools), independent or private schools, or grammar schools (which have selective admission based on academic ability). This variety allows parents and students to choose an educational environment that aligns with their preferences and needs.Sixth Form and Vocational EducationAfter completing compulsory secondary education, students in the UK have several options for further study. One popular route is to continue their academic journey through sixth form orcollege, where they can pursue A-Levels (Advanced Level qualifications) or vocational qualifications.A-Levels are subject-based qualifications that are typically studied over two years. Students choose three or four subjects to focus on, which allows them to specialize in areas of interest and prepare for university admission. Common A-Level subjects include Mathematics, English Literature, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, History, Geography, and Modern Foreign Languages.Alternatively, students can opt for vocational qualifications, such as BTECs (Business and Technology Education Council) or NVQs (National Vocational Qualifications). These qualifications are designed to provide practical, work-related skills and knowledge, preparing students for specific careers or further vocational training.Higher Education: Universities and BeyondThe UK is renowned for its prestigious higher education institutions, including world-class universities such as Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial College London, and the University of Edinburgh, among many others. These institutions offer a wide range of undergraduate and postgraduate degree programs, attracting students from across the globe.To gain admission to a UK university, students typically need to meet specific entry requirements, which often include achieving certain grades in their A-Levels or equivalent qualifications. The application process is facilitated through the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS), which serves as a centralized system for managing university applications.One strength of the UK higher education system is the emphasis on research and academic excellence. Many universities are at the forefront of cutting-edge research in various fields, providing students with opportunities to engage in groundbreaking work and contribute to advancing knowledge.Potential Areas for ImprovementWhile the UK education system has many strengths, there are also areas that could benefit from further improvement. One concern is the potential for socioeconomic disparities to impact educational outcomes. Students from disadvantaged backgrounds may face additional challenges in accessing quality education or receiving the necessary support and resources.Another area for consideration is the increasing emphasis on standardized testing and assessment, which can lead to anarrowing of the curriculum and excessive pressure on students and teachers. It is essential to strike a balance between accountability and fostering a love for learning and personal growth.Additionally, there are ongoing discussions around the need for greater investment in educational resources, teacher training, and support services to ensure that all students have access to high-quality learning experiences, regardless of their backgrounds or individual circumstances.ConclusionIn conclusion, the education system in the United Kingdom is a multifaceted and evolving framework that aims to provide quality education to all students. From the early years of nursery and primary school through to secondary and higher education, the UK offers a diverse range of educational pathways and opportunities.While the system has its strengths, such as personalized learning, academic rigor, and a focus on research excellence, there is also room for continuous improvement. Addressing socioeconomic disparities, finding the right balance between assessment and nurturing a love for learning, and investing ineducational resources are crucial areas that require ongoing attention and effort.As a student in the UK, I am grateful for the educational opportunities available to me and the dedication of educators who strive to foster a love for learning and personal growth. The UK education system, with its rich history and commitment to excellence, continues to shape the minds of future generations, equipping them with the knowledge, skills, and values necessary to thrive in an ever-changing world.篇2The Education System in the United KingdomAs a student in the UK, I have experienced the British education system firsthand from the early years through to higher education. The UK has a structured yet flexible approach to education that aims to provide quality learning opportunities for all children and young adults. In this essay, I will discuss the key stages, qualifications, and unique aspects of the UK's education system.Early Years and Primary EducationIn the UK, children typically start their educational journey in nursery or pre-school around the age of 3 or 4. This early yearseducation focuses on play-based learning, social development, and introducing basic literacy and numeracy skills. At the age of 5, children enter primary school, which lasts for 6 years until they are 11 years old.Primary education in the UK covers key subjects like English, mathematics, science, history, geography, art, music, and physical education. The curriculum is designed to develop a solid foundation in core academic areas while also nurturing creativity, critical thinking, and well-rounded personal growth. Primary schools use various teaching methods, including whole-class lessons, group work, and individual activities, to cater to different learning styles.Secondary Education and QualificationsAfter completing primary school, students move on to secondary education, which typically spans from ages 11 to 16 (or 18 in some cases). Secondary schools in the UK are divided into several key stages:Key Stage 3 (ages 11-14): This stage builds upon the knowledge and skills acquired in primary school, with a focus on subjects like English, mathematics, science, history, geography, foreign languages, art, music, and physical education.Key Stage 4 (ages 14-16): During these two years, students work towards obtaining their first major qualifications, typically the General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) or equivalent qualifications. GCSEs are subject-based exams that assess a student's knowledge and skills in various subjects. They are graded from 9 (highest) to 1 (lowest), with a pass grade typically being 4 or above.After completing Key Stage 4, students have a choice to make:Continue in academic education and pursue A-Levels (Advanced Level qualifications) or other vocational qualifications like the BTEC (Business and Technology Education Council) at a sixth form college or a school with a sixth form.Seek employment or enroll in vocational training programs, such as apprenticeships or further education colleges.A-Levels and Vocational QualificationsFor those who choose to continue their academic education, A-Levels are the most common pathway. A-Levels aresubject-based qualifications that students typically study for two years (ages 16-18). Most students take three or four A-Level subjects, which are assessed through a combination ofcoursework and final exams. A-Levels are graded from A* (highest) to E, with A*, A, B, and C being considered passing grades for university entry.Alongside A-Levels, vocational qualifications like BTECs are also available. BTECs are more practical and work-related qualifications that prepare students for specific careers or higher education in a particular field. These qualifications are offered at various levels, from entry-level to higher national diplomas, and cover subjects like business, engineering, IT, art and design, and health and social care.Higher EducationAfter completing A-Levels or vocational qualifications, students can choose to pursue higher education at universities or other institutions. The UK has a diverse range of universities, including renowned institutions like Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial College London, and the University of Edinburgh, among many others.To gain admission to a university, students typically apply through the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS). Entry requirements vary depending on the university and course, but generally, students need to meet specific grade requirements in their A-Levels or equivalent qualifications.Higher education in the UK offers a range of undergraduate and postgraduate degree programs, including bachelor's degrees (typically 3 years), master's degrees (1-2 years), and doctoral degrees (PhD, usually 3-4 years). Additionally, some universities offer foundation degrees, which are vocational qualifications that combine academic study with workplace learning.Unique Aspects of the UK Education SystemThe UK education system has several unique aspects that set it apart from other countries:Independent Schools (Private Schools): Alongsidestate-funded schools, the UK has a significant number of independent or private schools. These schools are fee-paying and often have a long tradition and reputation for academic excellence. Some of the most prestigious independent schools in the UK are known as "public schools," a term that can be confusing to those unfamiliar with the system.Grammar Schools: In certain areas of the UK, there are selective state-funded grammar schools that admit students based on their performance in an entrance examination. These schools are known for their academic rigor and often serve as apathway for high-achieving students to gain admission to top universities.Boarding Schools: The UK has a tradition of boarding schools, where students live and study on campus during term time. Boarding schools can be found in both the state and independent sectors and offer a unique educational experience with a focus on extracurricular activities and community living.Scottish Education System: Scotland has a slightly different education system from the rest of the UK, with its own qualifications (e.g., Nationals, Highers, and Advanced Highers) and a distinct curriculum. However, Scottish qualifications are recognized and accepted throughout the UK for university entry.In conclusion, the UK education system provides a comprehensive and structured approach to learning, with a focus on developing well-rounded individuals and preparing them for further academic pursuits or the workforce. From the early years through to higher education, the system offers a range of qualifications, pathways, and unique educational experiences that cater to the diverse needs and aspirations of students.篇3The Education System in the United KingdomAs a student in the UK, I have experienced the unique education system here firsthand. The UK has a long and storied history when it comes to education, with some of the oldest and most prestigious universities in the world located within its borders. However, the education journey begins much earlier than university for British students.Compulsory education in the UK starts at age 5 and continues until age 16. From ages 5-11, children attend primary school. The primary curriculum covers core subjects like English, math, science, history, geography, art, music, and physical education. At age 11, students move on to secondary school.Secondary Education (Ages 11-16)This is where the UK system starts to diverge from that of other countries. Instead of a single standardized curriculum, there are several "tracks" students can follow in secondary school. The two main options are:The General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) routeVocational courses and apprenticeshipsThe GCSE is the most common path. Students work towards GCSE exams in a range of subjects like English, maths, sciences, humanities, languages, and electives. GCSE scores are crucial, asthey impact which advanced courses and universities students can progress to after age 16.Alternatively, some students opt for more vocational, hands-on training through courses like BTECs (Business and Technology Education Council qualifications). These allow students to develop practical skills in fields like construction, hospitality, or hair and beauty. Apprenticeships that combine work and study are another vocational option.Post-16 EducationOnce students turn 16, compulsory education ends. However, the majority stay in education until 18 to pursue one of three routes:A-LevelsVocational coursesWorkplace apprenticeshipsA-Levels (Advanced Levels) are two-year subject-based courses that prepare students for university. Students typically take 3-4 A-Level subjects of their choice in areas like maths, English, sciences, languages, humanities and arts. A-Level exams are extremely challenging, requiring deep subject mastery.Alternatively, students can take more vocational courses like BTECs at Level 3 (equivalent to A-Levels). Or they can begin higher-level apprenticeships, earning while receiving on-the-job training.Higher EducationAfter completing A-Levels or equivalent qualifications, students can apply to universities. The UK has a centralized university application system called UCAS that all students use.When applying, students must meet challenging entry requirements set by each university and degree program. These are largely based on A-Level grades and sometimes include admission tests.If accepted, students have two main options:Three-year bachelor's degreesFour-year degrees with an integrated master'sTuition fees for domestic UK/EU students are currently capped at £9,250 per year at public universities in England. Costs can be much higher for international students and at private institutions.Universities in the UK are globally renowned, with institutions like Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, UCL, and many others ranking among the world's best. However, gaining entry to the top programs is enormously competitive.Overall ThoughtsAs a student, I appreciate how the UK system offers flexibility, with both academic and vocational pathways. The option to begin apprenticeships and career training straight out of secondary school provides alternatives to university for some students.That said, the system does involve extremely high-stakes testing like GCSEs and A-Levels. The pressure to perform well on these exams from an early age can be immense. University entry requirements and costs, especially for domestic students, are also very demanding compared to other European countries.Ultimately though, for academically-inclined students like me, the UK provides a world-class education from primary school through to higher education at its brilliant universities. The system has served me well so far in pursuing my potential through rigorous coursework and examinations.。

the Tripartite System
The Tripartite System /traɪ`pɑːtaɪt/ was the arrangement of state funded secondary education between 1944 and the 1970s in England and Wales, and from 1947 to 2009 in Northern Ireland. It was an administrative implementation of the Education Act 1944 and the Education Act (Northern Ireland) 1947. State funded secondary education was arranged into a structure containing three types of school, namely: grammar school, secondary technical school and secondary modern school. Pupils were allocated to their respective types of school according to their performance in the Eleven Plus examination. It was the prevalent system under the Conservative governments of the 1951 to 1964 period, but was actively discouraged by the Labour government after 1965. It was formally abolished in England and Wales in 1976 giving way to the Comprehensive System. However, elements of similar systems persist in several English counties such as Kent which maintains the grammar school system alongside comprehensive schools. The system's merits and demerits, in particular the need and selection for grammar schools, proved to be a contentious issue at the time and still remain so.
O Leveln schools
Designed for the majority of pupils----those who do not achieve scores in the top 25% of the eleven plus examination. Teachers are free to develop their own ideas, depending on the equipment and the qualifications.
British Education
Education is a vital concern throughout Britain because a highly developed nation depends upon educated professionals and a skilled workforce. The literacy rate in Britain is one of the highest in the world at over 99 percent.

/wiki/Direct_grant_grammar_school
Direct grant grammar school
The status was introduced by the Education Act 1944 as a modification of an existing direct grant scheme to privately endowed schools. There were 179 direct grant grammar schools, which together with over 1200 grammar schools maintained by local authorities formed the most academic tier of the Tripartite System. They varied greatly in size and composition, but on average achieved higher academic results than either maintained grammar schools or independent schools. When state secondary education was reorganised on comprehensive lines in the 1970s, the direct grant was phased out and the schools required to choose between becoming maintained comprehensive schools or fully independent schools. Forty-five schools, almost all Roman Catholic, joined the state system, and a few closed. The rest (including all the secular schools) became independent, and mostly remain as highly selective independent schools.
