Today we had a very interesting debate in our class.
The debate was about public schools in England.... it was a very interesting topic because what we understand for "public school" is totally different from what english people understand for it.
In England a public school is a very expensive school, with more than 300 years of tradition. Kids go to these schools from the age of ten. Normally they are boarding schools, which means that students must live in the same school.
The debate was well done. We discussed a lot about the importance of family support when you are a teenager.
I can not imagine a ten years old boy being by himself in a huge , traditional and strict school. Educating is also a family role...so I think that it is cruel to leave a child at that age by himself in such scenery.
During puberty it is necesary to count on your family......
I do not like boarding schools........ and of course ... education should be equal for everybody
