education

most education system of British and Chinses are the same, for example, both have nursery schools and private schools in own countries. In China, we do have senior school enterance exams which is similar to UK's GCSEs. Because of the large population in China, so the competition is very intense. Also the university enterance exams we have just like the A-levels in Britain, students have to study hard and try their best to get high marks in the exam so that they can get the opportunities to enter their ideal universities.
On terms of private schools, it may be a little difference between this two countries. In China, usually, private schools are not as normal as public schools, it not means private schools are bad. For example, generally speaking, primary public schools accept pupils when they reach 8 years old, but in private schools they don't obey this rule and accept pupils no matter they are 7 or 6.
