Independent secondary school
• Public schools, unlike prep schools, are not private in the fullest sense. They are generally controlled by governing bodies,who are appointed as trustees to keep alive foundations originally begun by charitable institutions or by rich and philanthropic people; they do not try to make any financial profits, but only to balance their budgets. Their income is partly from profits and endowments,mainly from fees paid by parents.

state primary education
The system of state primary education is from the age of 5 to 11.
In the state primary schools, there are two sections-----an infant section, from 5 to 7 and a junior section, from 7 to 11. Before their elementary schooling some children have an opportunity to attend one of the few kindergartens from the age of 3 to 5, officially called “Nuring School”. But most small children stay at home with their mothers.
