Do you know anything about england? because half those things are a lie, you are so obssesed with your website/blog that you dont even tell the truth. what a fake.
half of those things that you put on there about england are fake but i suppose that this website did help my homework. thanks but please check your facts first.
hey, i’m from German so please apologize my bad english ^^
i’m searching the differend between German and English Schools for homework and as i read this very long list i’ve to smile a lot of times ^^ it’s just funny to read which thought there are about German Schools xD
i thing it’s very cool that you’ve make a list like that but i really don’t now ANY school here in German in which you have to go on a saturday to school. And when you are at the 6 class (after the first school “Grundschule” at the “Hauptschule” or “Realschule” or “Gymnasium”) the boys and girls don’t have anymore together P.E.
so it’s just for information because i think it’s a very cool idea to make a list like that
Moonlight ^^
you obviously have no idea of what english schools ar like
