XIV. Read the passage and answer the questions.
Education is an important part of British life. There are hundreds of schools, colleges and universities in England, including some of the most famous in the world.
Education is free and compulsory for all children between the ages of 5 - 16. Some children are educated at home rather than in school.
Children’s education in England is normally divided into two separate stages. They begin with primary education at the age of five and this usually lasts until they are eleven. Then they move to secondary school, there they stay until they reach sixteen, seventeen or eighteen years of age.
Teachers in primary schools (4-11 years old) are always addressed by their surname by parents and pupils alike, always Mr., Mrs. or Miss Smith... In secondary schools (11 - 16 years), teachers are usually addressed as Miss or Sir.
