How are you? You want to know about school in England. Let me tell you. My school is open all day.

We have Morning (Registration at 9.15 and afternoon Registration at

             2 o' clock

Each teacher has her own classroom that she always teaches in. Some of the rooms look very interesting. We don't get much homework, We usually get homework in two subjects each day. We only have real tests at the end of the school year, in June. Then we do tests in every subject. This is not bad, really. In History you usually get 15 or 20 questions and you only have to answer 2 or 3 of them. But in some subjects, like Maths and Physics, there is usually one important question that everyone has to answer. French is different again. We get quite a lot of grammar and vocabulary questions that everyone has to answer.

I'm in Form 3W. This means that I'm in the Third Year and the first letter of my form teacher's name is "W". He's called 'Mr. Walter and he's OK.

He teaches us History.

I'm in the school swimming team. There are competitions in all the other important sports.

Are things very different at your school?

Best wishes,

Bob
