1 From reading the text, we know that the Grange School students
WORKING IN GRANGETON

Grangeton in Derbyshire isn’t actually a real town but it has most things that you might expect to nd in one. When a new
head teacher took over at the Grange Primary School, he found that both students and staff had become demotivated
and disinterested. He knew that the school needed something special and Grangeton certainly is.
Grangeton has businesses and services like any other town but these are all run by and for the school’s students, ve
days a week, every week of the school year. There is a town council and a mayor, who is elected each year from the Year 6
students. The council makes all the important decisions on how the town is run, just like in any normal town.
So, what can you nd in Grangeton? There is a newspaper, a museum and two shops. A café opens on two mornings a
week but it is a Parisian café and French is the only language that customers can use when ordering food there. There is
another reason for Grangeton, apart from motivating the students. Although they are only primary students, with a
maximum age of eleven, the school believes that they are the right age to gain some early work experience. Normally,
students have to wait until they are fourteen before getting any work related experience, and even then, it depends on the
school. The students of Grange School are too young to go to companies to work but, with their own businesses to run,
they don’t have to leave the school premises. The school also invites guests to talk to the students and help them. The
BBC helped them to set up a TV and radio station and local politicians talked to them about democracy and decision
making.
The school is able to nd the time to do all this because the work the students are doing is closely related to the school’s
education curriculum. As well as practising a foreign language in the café, the students use Maths when running their
businesses, English when writing their newspaper and even History in special projects such as when the council voted
that the shops should sell food from different past times.
Grangeton is now considered a great success and a model of how to use children’s creativity to involve them in the
learning process. Even people who you may expect to be critical of such non- traditional education methods are unable to
nd fault with what the students do.

A have to reach Year 6 before they can work in Grangeton.

B are more motivated by Grangeton than the teachers.

C are doing better academically because of Grangeton.

D decide for themselves how Grangeton will be run.

Вопрос 3
4 Which of these is true?
A WORRYING LACK OF BASIC SKILLS
A recent survey of 3,000 companies has found that employers have a major concern. They say that more and more
young people do not have the basic skills necessary to get on as employees. These skills include such things as being able
to communicate effectively and work as part of a team. Because of this, many employers think it is risky to offer work to
inexperienced young people, preferring to hire staff who have already had experience of a working environment
somewhere else.
In order to help to prepare young people for work, business leaders and employers are asking the government to include
work experience as part of the curriculum in all secondary schools. Some schools do offer work experience to their older
students but they don’t have to. As it can cause problems with timetabling and because schools are judged on exam
results rather than how well their students do once they leave education, work experience is not seen as a priority by
many head teachers.
Politicians of all parties have come out in support of these proposals and schools are encouraged to invite business
people to talk to their students and to offer more careers advice but, so far, no laws have been changed. Not surprisingly,
opposition party politicians have promised bigger changes if they are voted back into power in the next election.
Whoever is in charge, it is clear that businesses are no longer willing to spend time and money teaching young people
how to communicate and cooperate with their colleagues. Youngsters need help before they apply for their rst job and
schools and the government should be doing all they can to provide this assistance.
