Hi everyone!!!!
Welcome again in my blogg!! This is just my second article but I really enjoy doing that. :D I hope that you enjoyed the first one about the differences between the four nations in uk. I Thank miss jeanette for the correction about the color of the english rose. Don't forget that you can do like her and tel me everithing you want to about my differents posts.
So today is a new day, and a new article should follow as. (^ - ^)
In this new article, I will talk about the differences between the hool system but not any. I will talk about hte differences between the Cameroon and the Uk School system. Unfortunatly Cameroon is not a country where the informations that are avalaible are enough registered or certain to be true. :-/ So for this article ;ost of the information you will have about the cameroon will come from my own experience. In this article, with the differences sources i will have I will start first by the informations about the Uk, comment it and after compare it with my own experience in Cameroon. I am afraid that this article could be less informative than the first one becaue I did a french school in cameroon and the School system is very different but I hope you will enjoy it too.There are some schools in Cameroon offering good quality education to the children of the country. In Cameroon, schooling starts at the tender age of three. Though childhood education is not compulsory, but the parents can send their wards to kindergarten schools in Cameroon which is not free and very expensive.
Whereas in the Uk system, between the age of 0 and 5, there is something in the Uk system called the pre-school and nursery education where the childree have to go. Started to go to school at that age is compulsory in the Uk sytem. If the parents don't send their childreen at school, someone of the governement will come and ask explanation to them.
The primary education is mandatory in Cameroon. It takes about seven years to finish primary schooling. Most of the primary schools of Cameroon are government owned and others are run by religious organizations or by private owners. In Cameroon, students can avail the primary education free of cost. This was really true before, now, there is not schools in cameroon which are free. Even for the governement schools. There are all not free.
The primary educaton in the Uk system takes about six years to finish. the students have to succed classes in this order: Year 1 up to year 6. If that student was good and did all his years just once, he will finish the primary school with about 11 years old.
The Uk students can go to school in civils clothes but in most of cameroonian schools, the uniform is compulsory like you can see in the picture:
After this level, in cameroon anything is obliged. In cameroon it is possible to miss out somes years. You just have to be brillant. Despite in the uk system, you must attend all yours years before be able to be accepted after 18 in the Highter and Further education.
In Uk, there is many several universities like (the university of glamorgan) ( where i am doing my studies ^^) but in cameroon there is just about 5 or 6 universities some for the government other which are privates and both are not free.
The quality of the governement schools decrease each years due to the quality of the governement. but with the futures changes, we hope that the situation will change and the cameroonian schools could recovered the prestige they had before.

An interesting blogwritten from classroom discussion and your own experience. One detail is not clear - compulsory schooling in the UK starts at the age of 5 or the school year in which the child is 5. Also, try to use sources outside the classroom - eg where did you find the photos? Check the marking criteria for your blogs on page 35 of your handbook 'evidence of research ..........'
