PECULIARITIES OF

LEARNERS’ TEACHING IN
HIGH SCHOOL IN VARIOUS
COUNTRIES AND CULTURES
Depending on the country to the country, both similarities
and differences can be found in the Western education
system. The main feature that unites all schools of this
system is inclusiveness and focus on teaching the child
independence, developing his individuality.
 USA: ESTIMATES ARE NOT THE MAIN THING

Features and rules of the American

school
 Children do not go to school from September
1
Depending on the state, the school year may
begin in August or in mid-September. At the
same time, no solemn lines, as in post-Soviet
countries, are arranged. The guys just come to
school and start learning.

 Grades are not the main thing

Here, parents are not fixated on grades. The
main thing is that the child feels responsible
for his own choice, knows how to work and
achieve his goals. And he did it not from
under the stick, but of his own free will.
FINLAND: EQUALITY, FREE OF CHARGE, FREEDOM

Features and principles of the Finnish school

Finnish education is considered one of the best in the world. Students
of Finnish schools show high results in international rankings. They say
that it's all thanks to the principles that the educational system follows.

The principle of equality

In Finland, all schools are equal.
There are neither weak nor elite.
All schools are mostly public,
with the same equipment and
facilities. There are no important
and unimportant subjects, no
favorites among students and the
best among teachers. Everyone is
equal. Even the rights of adults
and children.
The principle of free
Everything is free for
students in Finland –
lunches, textbooks,
excursions and even
transport if the child lives
far from school.
CHINA: FULL-DAY STUDY AND SHORT VACATIONS

Features and rules of the Chinese school

In China, children come to school at the age of 6 and study for 12 years. During
this time, they get used to work, discipline and learn a huge amount of
information. And all because higher education is the only ticket to a normal life,
and competitions in universities are very large.

Study for 10 hours a day
Lessons start at 8 am and continue
until about 4 pm. After that, the
children still do their homework at
home until late in the evening.
And on weekends – additional
classes in subjects that are poorly
given.
Who does not want to study goes
to Kung Fu school
Parents send naughty children to
Kung Fu schools. There the brats
train from morning to evening and
study basic disciplines. At the end
of such a school, the best students
become Kung Fu trainers.
 RUSSIA: A STABLE AND ALMOST UNCHANGED EDUCATION
SYSTEM

Features and rules of the Russian school

The training is free of charge
But by the school year, parents must fully prepare the child
themselves: buy stationery, pay for textbooks, uniforms, and
hand over for classroom and school repairs.

Teachers themselves make up a program for their subject

There are state norms and rules according to which each
teacher compiles a curriculum. But, despite the framework,
this is a creative process in which teachers put their soul.

The older the student, the richer his schedule

Starting from the 5th grade, Russian students are loaded no
less than Chinese. Even parents admit that the program is
quite complicated and not everyone can do it. But time
dictates its own rules and today there is nowhere without
knowledge and skills.
 SPAIN

In Spanish schools, education is

conducted not only in Spanish, but also,
depending on the region of the country,
in the second official language (Catalan,
Valencian, etc.), its study is mandatory.
After the second or third lesson, students
have a break for afternoon tea, and
parents are given recommendations about
what kind of food they should give
children with them. This is called the
"afternoon tea calendar". In the big half-
hour break, children play in the school
yard.
In Spain, there are public
schools with free tuition for all
children, semi-public schools
funded by the Catholic Church
or local authorities, and private
schools (colegios privados) that
provide an opportunity to obtain
an international baccalaureate
diploma.

Staying in school for the second year is an ordinary

situation.
 FRANCE
In France, most children study in public schools. They are free for everyone,
but at the beginning of the school year, parents often donate money for
leisure activities for children - sightseeing trips, movie tickets, etc.

The numbering of classes begins in reverse order: so, in secondary school,

children go to the sixth grade, and finish the third, after which they pass the
exam and receive a certificate.

In college, a child whose academic performance is much better can be

transferred to a higher class, and a failing one can be transferred to a lower
class.

In French schools, children are not allowed to use phones, and it is mandatory
to go outside during big breaks.
 New generation schools
Today, new generation schools are gaining popularity all
over the world, where there is no classical education
system, and where emphasis is placed on the interests and
development of the child's personality. There children are
happy to run to lessons and are upset because of absences.

For example, there are schools where there are no regular

classes, and where children choose and study natural,
exact and social sciences, art, literature, English, and also
interact freely with each other regardless of age.
