Classes in my secondary school are huge. On average there are thirty-eight students in a class. A lot of classes are lectures where the teacher stands at the front and talks. We have to wear a smart uniform at school. Our jackets and ties are dark green — I love them! The boys have to wear trousers and the girls can wear skirts or trousers. We’re at school from 8.30 a. m. until 2.20 p. m. We have a break at 11 a. m. for half an hour. We have two weeks’ holiday at Christmas, one week at Easter and two months in summer. In secondary school, the most interesting subjects are Maths, English and Science. Everyone also has to take PE — it’s a great subject. When we’re 15 we have to choose our «options» — the subjects we take in our last two years at school. It’s a really difficult choice but it means I can finally stop studying Geography!
