Girl's School in Britain

Eton college and Harrow school are the most famous boy's school and many graduates from these go to Oxford university and Cambridge university. Speaking of girl's schools, Roedean, Cheltenham, Wycombe Abbey, Benenden are famous.
Then, I'll introduce Roedean.



Roedean (an independent day and boarding school)


・Location

Roedean is located just on the eastern edge of Brighton. The founders of the school, Lawrence sisters, established the school there because of the idea that “where the air is healthy and all schools succeed."


・Students

Roedean is a school for girls aged 3-18 and for boys aged 3-11. So, its lower school, muddle school and sixth form are just for girls. International students make up 45% of the community, with girls coming from over 30 countries, notably Nigeria, Hong Kong, China, Canada, USA and Russia.


・Subjects (Middle School, age13-15)

There is a lot of choice which students can take. For example, Business Study, Drama, French, German, Greek, Latin, and so on. It can't be in Japan. We never have that much choice. So, it seems interesting! Students there can study what they want:)

After Graduation

Some of the graduates go to Imperial, some are Cambridge, LSE, UCL, MAnchester, Oxford and so on. Oh, excellent:)YY

The Geography of the UK

• The Location of the UK

The United Kingdom consists of England, Scotland, Wales and Northen Ireland, and is located in Western Europe.

• The Size and Population of the UK

The size of the United Kingdom is 243,610 sq km. (Japan is about 38 sq km.)

It's the 79th biggest country in the world.

The population is 5961,113,205. (Japan is about 130,000,000 people)

It's the 22nd larggest population in the world. It means the population is much larger, compared to the size.



I have an image that the UK and Japan have something in common. For example, both are islands and small countries, but are dence with people and also well developed. So, I'm interested in the UK and really hope to visit there!
