and UK
By 陈湘楠from Class six
As all we know,China has a long history in education and its education system is being improved gradually.While The Great Britain is the typical representative of western educator,who owns a advanced system.It attracts students from all over the world in the large extent go and study there.So in the article,it is essential to compare the two education system.Through the comparison of the two education system in China and UK,we can find the advantadges and disadvantadges in the two education systems.And then we can find out why more and more students want to go to the Britian for further study. As we know, gap comes from comparison,and gap always can refracted significance. From learning about the gap,we can find a better way to reform Chinese education system. In addition,different educational views reflect different nations’ cultural values. Through the comparison of the two education system in China and UK ,we can know deeper about the cultural value of this two countries,and then step over the communication barrier. The article analysis some similarities and diffrences between Chinese education and British education and give my personal view according to the comparative.
Both China and UK have law on compulsory education, which provide a favorable legal protection for the popularization and development of compulsory education.What is more,According to Graham David, they both have a very rigorous
assessment system in the education. And teachers in China and UK have high request to their students. In addition, they both emphasize the traditional theory research and basic knowledge of the students.The students in this two cuntries have a ability to find the necessary conditions to draw the inevitable conclusion by themselves. ②
Because of diffrent history, culture, traditions and economic and so on,there are many diffrences between Chinese education and British education.
Firstly, According to Graham David, China has a nationwide system of public education,which includes primary schools,middle schools and universities.Nine years of education is technically compulsory for all Chinese students.Education in China is the responsibility of the Ministry of Education So the tutions always come from the government.Although the British education is also compulsory education,it last eleven years.Its school system is two-track system which includes course teaching and individual counseling.In addition,Britain has public schools and private schools. And the tutions are free in the public school while those come from the students' parents in the private school. Secondly, according to Lucky,China and UK culculate personnel in different directions. China aims to develop general education.So the Chinese schools have many subjects,such as Chinese, math, English, history, physics and so on.The Chinese students must study these subjects every day.And they must work hard that they hardly have spare time to relax themselves.So a lot of Chinese students are under great study pressure. But Britain aims to develop experts.So the students in UK have more chances to choose and stick to an elective cource to expand their knowledge and visions.And they have much more spare time to play than Chinese students.Thirdly, according to Ren zaifa ,the Chinese educational system is
very simple. Most of students have to pass the college entrance examination.And then they can go to college to study a major.But in Britain, the students have many choices to study.There are many technology schools. Everybody can enter without certisfication and limeted age.Fourthly,according to Lucky, he relationship between teathers and students are also different. Teachers would like to be the friends but governors in the UK. But teachers are over-strict in China.Finally,according to Charles Cater ,the educational concept between China and UK is quite different.Chinese education focuses on textbook and pay attention to the accumulation and implants of knowledge.It evaluates students’ achievement according to score and cultivates students' strict and rigorous spirit.While British education gives priority to with practical knowledge and pays attention to the application.It culitivates tudents' spirit of confidence and independence. ①②③④
From the comparison of the two education system in China and UK,it is obvious that there are a lot of differences in length of schooling,ways of teaching and keystone of education in the systems.Everything in the world has its both sides.The education either in China or in the UK has its own advantages and disadantages.Therefore it is difficult to judge which one is better just by the rate of admission.But it is previous that we can use the system in UK for reference. In this way, it could help China to improve our education system.On the one hand,we should improve the conception of education.The government should know about the purpose of education.The aim of education is to help students adapt to the society and find a good job.So the officers should understand the relationship between the government and the schools,the schools and the students.I think the new conception of education will give the students more space to think,not to learn.It is a effective
way to help students master the knowledgement.On the other hand,we should improve the popularization of education,The teachers should not restrict the students’ sense of innovation.They are ought to encourage the students to have their own idears and break through the conventional way of learning.In sum,although Chinese education system is good enough,the system in UK is better,which gives the students enough space and allowance to learn by themselves.It is the point we should use for reference.
