My school and education 2.
Education in this country includes the following stages:
pre-school, primary, secondary and terciary.
Small children can go to kindergartens, at 6 they start going to primary school and they stay there until 15. At the age of 15 the pupils transfer from primary to secondary school. Some pupils can transfer to grammar school (gymnázium) at the age of 11 after they have passed an entrance examination.
There are several types of secondary schools in this country:
1) grammar schools (gymnázia) which provide general and more academic education and prepare
students for university study,
2) special schools which include technical colleges (průmyslové a odborné školy), specialized in building, chemistry, engineering, business academies, agricultural schools, nursing schools, music and art schools etc,
3) vocational schools (odborné školy pro přípravu k povolání) which train students for practical jobs.
Secondary education usually lasts for 4 years and it is finished with a school leaving examination. This examination is taken in four subjects (3 are compulsory, one is optional).
The examination is held in May or June and is mostly oral.
