Just to clear something up. I never knew that the US had isolation which was called “ISS” /"In School Suspension" Or in Some states required school uniform. Join the discord: discord.gg/9tqKfkMq9y
@@JUNSKULLY. ISS isn’t really isolation it “in school suspension”. So you’re isolated with other I guess and you can’t talk. But the funniest part is most kids who get ISS are because they skipped class, so the teachers make them skip more class basically.
Just wanted to add a few things 1.) some public schools in America do enforce uniforms along with a dress code 2.) preschool for ages 3-4 is typically called head start (at least in my state) 3.) like everyone said the school lunches used to be good until Michelle Obama pass the healthy food law and it went down hill for most public schools but lucky for me all the school’s I’ve been to didn’t get affected as much by it 3.) in the states that do allow corporal punishment the school has to send a paper home for the parents to sign that allows them to spank/padal the kid’s if they misbehave
I attend American public school I can tell you exactly what happened with our lunch and why it looks like that it’s not that our lunch ladies hate us it’s that back in the early 2010s Michelle Obama passed the law which it required schools to ““ make school lunches, healthier, but they didn’t. It only just lowered the quality of the food.
This isn’t true, school lunches have always been terrible pre-Obama, I went to elementary school during the bush era and they were just the same low quality food.
It was like I literally got flashbanged when you popped Hereford sixth form on the screen because i go to college there at the moment. I see that building every day

In the U.S. the strictness during class time partially depends on the teachers. Some are strict to point where they have the whole class silent and begging to go home, while others are so chill you could literally have a casual conversation with them during class (as long as you're paying attention to the actual lesson). There were times when my class felt like a sit-comedy show because of some of the converse we had with the teachers.
That just sounds like British substitute teachers, just last week one made us all sit in silence for the whole lesson for no reason other than she “wanted some peace and quiet” and a few months ago we got this chill grandpa guy who let us do basically anything
I went to school in Ghana and now the US. I’m thankful every day that teachers aren’t allowed to beat us as much as Africa, but they will snitch on you to your parents
As a English based student I can confirm almost every thing said about our schools in this video and to add something we also have school uniforms for our first schools as well as our teen years of school. My school had a system for the food you got so if you didn’t pay you got the basic food (pretty much close to what I’d consider left overs) or you could pay daily monthly or Yearly to receive specific foods. But most of us just brought in packed lunchbox food since the school also allowed that. 11:11 Brilliant video!
American school custodian here. Maybe this is just a thing in Michigan but in certain school districts they also have intermediate schools between elementary and middle school. Also in certain areas the gap in public schools are also replaced by charter schools where they do make you wear uniforms. Great video thanks.
Fun fact more than 180 countries in the world take the British Cambridge exams for O level and A level, my country is one of those. Its really cool how 180 countries can write the same exact exam in tandem over a course of 4 weeks and the papers are shipped back to UK for marking. They colonised us and then copy paste the education system, this has made life easy tho since I move countries so much. The education system is also 100% same from primary, secondary and then high school the uni
My school used to have a really strict Head Teacher who banned sweets and any food that was taken out of the canteen and I used to be the school sweat dealer from year 8 to 9. I remember I had this massive body guard called Lewis who played rugby who I payed lollies to protect me from thieves. My main stock was lollies, crisps, sweet laces, gum and also Chewits
nice. I remember at my elementary school I would sell a ton of stuff mostly candy and artwork and I made a ton of money from it and got snacks at the dollar store like every day.
How the hell does this video not have more views? Rare W from the algorithm. British public schools are definitely ahead when it comes to grades. But, I personally think both public schools are great compared to other countries due to international standardized testing. Anyways, you're getting a sub. :)
FYI British public schools are the really really expensive schools that only super rich people can afford. For example, Prince William and Harry went to a public school called Eton. British state schools are the ones anyone can go to.
In my home country (Mexico) we had a combination of both US and UK graduation celebrations, we walked through the stage and had a speech from one of the students, and a day before the ceremony many would write things in their shirts or will bring water balloons and it was a whole revolution in there. Sadly the elementary I went to was pretty mid and they decided to print the names of everyone in our course in our shirts at least we were able to have fun in our last day by throwing water balloons
amazing vid. as a spanish person myself attending to a British school in spain since nursery, I can relate so much. I hated doing my gcses. that was the worst shit ever man. anyways, lots of support.
As someone who goes to American schools i can confirm lunches are bad because There was an entire grade throwing up because the milk was at least a few years old My friend and i witnessed the lunch ladys picking up beans that splattered on the floor and putting it on someones tray My school got evacuated because a lunch lady somehow caught an apple on fire This is only elementary school i dont feel like typing the rest
this was pretty interesting and THANK YOU FOR EXPLAINING THE AMERICAN SYSTEM IN A WAY I CAN UNDERSTAND IT! ive seen breakdowns/comparisons between the 2 before and even asked americans how they worked and came away with a bit of knowledge and a lot of confusion XD btw just wanted to point out public schools in the uk are basically private schools, and what ur talking about are probably state schools ik its kinda stupid but ig its how it is :P
@@JUNSKULLY. yh its weird, i still dont get it tbh. your welcome tho! edit: OK SO. i think public schools are a type of private school (but not all private schools are public schools), and according to wikipedia 'They are "public" in the sense of being open to pupils irrespective of locality'. Other sources state (hehe pun) them to be 'a group of long-established boarding secondary schools which charge school fees.' State schools are the ones funded by the government, free for everyone to go to and stuff, and is the kind of school most people go to. wow did not expect to write that much, my English teachers would be proud XD
Something I’d like to add: school drills. Don’t know if there are any school drills in the UK, but where I live (California), I can remember a few active drills we had practice annually: Fire drill, earthquake drill, and the American classic active shooter drill. Now that I’m in college I haven’t had to do this but I know the schools I went to most likely still practice these drills to this day.
yes there are school drills in the UK but we only practice fire drills and nothing else, but my god they are the MOST BORING DRILLS EVER. all of us have to line up in a goofy ahh line and walk extremely slowly and i mean like as slow as a slug all the way outside and then we have to wait a century in this dumb line next to the other classes sometimes in the rain so we would get drenched, AND WE COULDN'T EVEN SPEAK TO EACHOTHER, thank god they are rare and only happen a few times a year
The high school I went to demolished the old school and made a new one. They added smoke detectors that are so sensitive that we have 3-5 false alarms every week.
Live in the US and I gotta say I don't know where the hell these kids are going to get food like that! And it's not like I go to some rich school far from it, but mother of God, I've never had anything that looked like that!
One of my schools served raw chicken with only the skin cooked, it was so raw there was still blood in it. Someone tried to sue USA foods and the school but nothing happened, it was just swept under the rug as they kept serving us this nasty chicken, and that jello milk consistency that was in every single school I went to. There was also other nasty food that was moldy and what not but that chicken was the highlight. They also had one desert, nothing else, which was a cookie for 2 dollars. For context, this cookie was not only about 3 inches in diameter, but it was also rock solid. A kid broke his tooth trying to bite into one, and a another kid knocked a lunch staff out by throwing it at her dome. Made a big pop sound and then she was on the floor. He used her being knocked out to start a mini chant and protest/riot thing. It really just be so wild, I don’t know why it is like this. I personally want to blame Michelle Obama but it might have been something else. 🤷🏾♀️
5:50 my school in the uk detentions were abit different Level 1: 5 minutes after class (during break) Level 2: All of lunch time Level 3: 1 hour after school Level 4: isolation for the day
I’m from supposedly the most yee-yee state, and my school sounds luxurious compared to a lot of other public schools. The school lunch is usually good (but when it isn’t it tastes absolutely disgusting), and there are six different lines, with a few different themes, and the pizza lines always serve the same kinds so there are consistently good ones. It has at least 2 thousand students, so you will find the right friend group, and you can watch the wrong crowds from a distance. Other than math, English, science, and history, you can choose the rest of the classes so that you can find potential career fields, and there’s usually one left just for fun. Even with the ones you can’t choose, you can choose how advanced they are, and in the last year, you only have to do English (sadly that’s the only one I hate) Edit: I forgot to mention that I’m in a class where I’m learning how to make video games.
From what I remember from when I was in school, the main reason for school uniforms was to reduce bullying. People rarely got bullied for there outfits when everyone had to ware the same stuff.
The local tesco express near my school had to have staff guarding the door limiting how many people were allowed to enter at once because half the school descended on it like a plague during lunch
icl going to british schools was either the deadest thing or the funnest thing i ever done bro, when teachers shout in ur face i wouldnt be able to stop laughing but also i got detentions every lunch for some strict bs
I still wish I was homeschooled, my school was not the best. It was a big school, almost 2,000 kids, but the education was so bare minimum, most teachers just put on movies, and you have to constantly put up your guard, praying some douche won't slander you to the point you wanna jump out the window and run away. It was emotionally tough, but academically too easy. (American public school in the middle of nowhere btw) If I had any advice to any poor soul that goes to this school; convince your parents to move you to another place.
Bro my school has double the amount of kids that your school has. The normal highschool has about 500-1000 kids, I wish I could be homeschooled too because why are there so many people, and the teachers do not care 95% of the time.
@@LeoDoesEverything it really is. Unless your parents are wealthy enough for 1 parent to not work and just sit and teach her self the material so she can teach you. Then it’s gonna be worse than public schools.
For American school lunches, I remember it hitting in when I was in elementary (or primary) school and as I got to middle and high school, they just stopped trying. I brought my own lunch everyday at that point
After being in internal twice, I can confidently say that it is underrated. A whole school day not doing much, idk if its just my school but the internal teachers just check if you have work, not if you're doing it. Honestly one of the most chill, relaxing things I've done. Also, if you're quiet anyways you'll love internal, the teachers are either messing with the six-formers or shouting at them, it's pretty hilarious. If I could I would go in internal again, but my H.O.Y said if I get internal 1 more time this year she's moving me to a new school. :(
yeah so easy - after schools were light work too, they’d tell you to write an essay about why you were there, but no one ever actually had to do it (the teachers wanted to get home as quickly as we did, no way were they going to keep you back longer than the proscribed hour)
@@aulabaula6339 you’d meet up with your mates outside the gate too “post-release” and you’d feel like the man 😂 walking with them on the way to maccies telling them how it went 😂 good times
Yeah, food in American Public schools sucks, but American Private Schools (Pre-school through MS) have amazing food, education, and are much better. Our Public schools are failures, but we have amazing private schools.
i say debatable before the whole eat healthy campain the food was pretty good and snack line was amazing after it mid not even mid below average in my opinion
Coming from multiple states and towns where I studied education in the US, I can say that school quality isn't really regulated and sits on a spectrum where it depends on how much teachers are paid, how many students to class rooms ratio, all the different ethnicities, and it's relative safety. Going to schools from 2004 to 2018 I experienced possibly the most turbulent schooling in our time, with most changes happening around middle to high school. For elementary it was very safe, and the teachers actually wanted their students to succeed, and while the lunches weren't "healthy," they were edible and were relatively cheap. For both my middle school experiences I saw how schools ignored the healthy eating laws that Michelle Obama introduced (the worst thing she ever did) as for 6th and 7th my school was well off just doing their own thing, but for 8th I saw food quality decline and alongside that a decline in happiness and safety. As for high school, it was a shitshow, proper fights on the regular, the only food options that were available every day were frozen fruit cups and ordered pizza which they charged 4 times the price, and other than that they were offering half baked or fully burnt stuff, microwaved meals and most people would either bring food from home or go hungry. Only the older teachers were capable of teaching us while the rest were new hires straight from college. Drugs were a rampant problem bathrooms were more like fighting rings than calm spaces, and even having 3-6 police officers there at all times could not stop the anarchist setting. There would always be a hospital van there once per day. And even then racism would be blatant from our school website being hacked and replaced with slurs and other unsavory images. And to top it off the public high school was poor that they would sell small cups of water for 1 dollar and claim it was vegan (it was the hot dog water). I'm just glad I made it out of there at all.
And to close out the statement I'm glad that colleges are far better than the other schools, and most of this comes from the southern US, where they will still graduate you even if you fail all your classes. So yeah thank you for coming to my TED talk about how schooling in the US is most likely gonna destroy this country
I'm my British school they call it the "behavior pathway" for some reason It goes like this Warning YCDB(detention) NIL(detention) Parked(moved to a different classroom&detention) Idk why it's like this but if you go to far you get "refocus". Idk why they call it this but its basically isolation
Fun fact: we have “kindergarten” in the US because the concept didn’t really exist at the time when the first one was founded in Wisconsin in 1856 by Margarethe Schurz (the student of the originator of kindergartens in Germany). As a result, this idea of education at that age spread to other areas in the US under the name that was taken directly from German.
I remember never having my top button done or my tie properly all through high school here in the UK. All the teachers knew me and the reasons why I did not do this but it was always funny seeing a new teacher get flustered at this or a substitute get angry. The Uniform thing here is seriously no joke
@@shayyuss same when it comes to everything except "not in uniform" lol, there's always this idea that the oldest students should be role models but it seems like the younger ones are more fit for it
@@JUNSKULLY. yeah it depends on the county or city you attend school in. Also in some counties in the United States they have sports teams where they compete against other middle schools too
I’m my american public high school, because we are in a low income county they do require uniforms. Although people hate that we can only where certain colors or certain attire, they have become more lenient and allow sweatpants and leggings. School lunch is absolutely horrendous though.
Actually in my middle school, in the U.S, we had lunch detentions, in the classroom of the teacher that assigned one. But if I remember correctly, I think if the teacher was absent or something, it's an in school suspension (isolation) in the office w/ sh¡tty food from lunch.
certain schools require a uniform most of the time its navy or tan kakis and a shirt of whatever school color most of the time its white and then you can wear your own hoodie with it and thats how people get away with wearing regular shirts
I remember almost nothing of my UK high school education. My memories of it are blurred, voices of teachers and friends sound like the teacher from Charlie Brown. I vaguely remember getting isolation for something and I remember getting out of a class early to play away football fixtures. I must have been one of the "clever" ones, because I did a degree (Spanish & History). Recently found out my school got closed down and it's now a Barrett Homes estate.
Yeah sort of sums up my time at a UK school. Honestly those Chefs in the canteen were cooking some days. Also the lessons were interactive and engaging.
I'm about to end school (year 11) It's been vibes, gone to english and welsh schools, just sad corona fucked so much things up and i didn't get to enjoy the middle years of secondary school I think how i would describe british schools is that you'll hate it or love it depending on who you are and what school you're going to Gonna miss this though, there will never be anything quite like it again after this 😔
Physical discipline is an admittedly controversial topic in some states. I remember after graduating high school, a teacher found herself in hot water for disciplining a kindergarten student. This was in Florida obviously, where I believe physical discipline is banned
08:51 people had assembly after their GCSE's? when the year above me finished their GCSE's they were chased out of the school using broomsticks as they were no longer a part of the school
When I left school in the UK in the late 80s we did not have proms. We signed shirts and throw eggs and flour at each other. Pretty everything seem the same, plus school dinner now has more choice.
We had prom in the early 2000s for mine but from what I heard most of the guys didn't show up because most guys didn't own a suit that young and the girls ofc dressed up super nice. Not unlike the whole Harry Potter depiction of it where if you didn't succeed with getting a dance partner and good suit, you'd feel a mega failure. The handful of confident guys who showed up were definitely showered with female attention.
Aussie schools are similar to British schools ngl. Year 1-6 is primary and year 7-12 is high school. We have to bring our own lunches though. You can go to the tuckshop and buy overpriced food but it’s GOOD. They are strict about uniforms too 💀 The sport teachers are the chillest though (also this info might vary depending where you are from)
We had "isolation" during High School but they didn't call it that. It's called OCR and it was mostly a joke. It's the same set up but there'd always be a security guard there and they'd walk out like 6-8 times during the time so we could go on our phone or do whatever. Most people who were there were on suspension (we had on-school and off-school suspensions) but I got send there a few times just for small shit. It was the equivalent of a person with an infraction being locked up with a 5x felony gang banger... like bro a lot of times I'd be like why am I in here 😂
As an Australian a lot of the British terms are familiar but we also use them a bit different Terms are just 1 of the 4 semesters you do per year in primary/high school You only use semester for University : D
Money is genuinely the decider here. At my private school, all of our meals are fresh and made by chefs (our lunches have won awards because of their quality). However if you were to drive out of the area and go to a public school, I've heard that they have disgusting processed lunches.
Yeah one thing I’ve noticed about America is the private schools are amazing… public schools are an actual dumpster fire though and most people are often better off homeschooled
The whole uniform thing to avoid poor kids from being bullied is cap because you have to buy the uniforms yourself so the poor kids will have to wear their small ass blazers and trousers even if they outgrow them if their parents can't (or won't) buy them I think the whole food thing is also dependent on the school. I went to an academy so they got to spend their funding on whatever they wanted so the school got actual caterers for the food, and in London at least there's a load of academies idk how many there are in the US
I remember they doubled down on Uniforms in Scotland after the dunblane shooting , and said that it helps identify students and people who arent meant to be on school premises. and youd get into trouble for not wearing them.
It's actually worse today because of the Academy schools trying to flex on regular schools. Now all schools have their own blazer with school coat of arms on it you have to buy.
I wasnt shocked when you said you schooled in Ghana for a bit because your accent comes out a bit, but as soon as you said you looked like lil nas i knew we are literally the same person because thats what they all say about me too lmfao
They do it differently in Scotland they have nursery for two years then primary for seven and after that they have high school for 6 years then off to college or university (also we don’t have isolation)
For the “grade/year” system, the video was using, from what I can tell, English rules. In Scotland its slightly different, here, it’s from 3-5 year olds in nursery followed by 7 years of primary school then 6 years of secondary school. These are normally shortened to “p1-7” and “S1-6”. In the part of Scotland I live in you can leave in S5 and go into early employment or work experience. For lunches, we can go “out”. In our town there are many places that serve food and a couple of shops which means we are allowed to go to one of these to get something to eat. Most of the places are fish and chip shops because it’s Britain. Uniform is accurate, we must wear a uniform however, it’s less as strict, you don’t have to wear a blazer but you have to wear a shirt, smart trousers (pants😅) and black/dark gray shoes. That all I could see that was different for me and I am not totally aware of what happens for all the other schools around.
Yeah like who the fuck decided Scotland should have a different education system than the rest of the UK, like seriously try explaining our exam system to an English persoj
Was waiting for someone to mention this lol. Yeah here in Scotland they are way more lenient with school uniform, I haven't seen or heard of a single person in my school getting dress-coded once (and trust me the people in my school are some of the most wackiest mfs). The being able to go out for lunch rule kinda sucks cause theres always that bastard that comes into class half an hour late with the excuse "the bus broke down" lmfao
Yeah we had a dodgy unmarked burger van that parked just outside the school gates. Some schools are near the sea and pupils can go for a walk on the beach during lunchtime (this is secondary school only). Being more than 5 minutes late back from lunch just meant you'd be marked as not in class, not a problem unless it adds up. Uniform heavily depended on head teacher, we had many new ones come in and they'd always start off with strict new rules then give up a few months in. Eventually settled on _please_ just wear a tie, and would hand out ties to anyone not wearing one. English schools are bonkers with their getting sent home over the wrong shoes, it's not reasonable.
You keep saying in the Uk but Scotland is a bit different from England. Idk about northern Ireland or Wales though. In Scotland nursery is the same, but then you go from primary 1 up to primary 7. Following this secondary school or high school for 4-6 years depending on the person. In year four of high school (commonly called S4) you take exams called national 5's. From this point forward you can choose to leave school (by this time you are 15-16 years old). If you choose to stay on you can do highers in 5th and 6th year. Also in 6th year you can take advanced highers which are quite simialar in content to first year of university (should you choose to go there). With enough qualifications you can go into college/uni and do all that further education stuff.
7:14 actually reminds me Basically back in secondary I was the quiet kid that was liked by most of the teachers and all of the lunch ladies So one day they basically allowed me to skip to the front of the line everyday which the first time made the student at the front understandably fuming about it But hey How can you say no to pancakes and waffles with honey or syrup for 2 quid?
From 3-4 you go to nursery or pre-school, so our pre-school just begins sooner. And primary school in the uk is reception to year 6, or like me, you go to infant school from reception to year 2, then junior school from year 3 to year 6
Bro last day of high school I just dipped with my mate, fuck prom fuck signing shirts, lmao. After the dead final assembly I wasn’t planning on sticking around.
Slightly different in Scotland. Reception is basically just year one or kindergarten. We skip that bit and go from primary 1 at age 4 up to primary 7 at 12. Then in high school it's S1 to S6. We don't really have middle school in the UK either.
Consequences in British high schools can also vary, like mine used to have C1, C2, C3 and C4 but now we don't even get warnings if we're 5 mins late we can be sent to reflection which is isolation but better
We actually had some decent school lunches in the district I was taught in. Like, I really miss it for some reason… especially the Deep Dish Pizza from 6th-8th grade. The school I went to, you could get that if you weren’t feeling the other options, and make a whole meal on its own. After that… well, the food was still good, but High School dropped the Deep Dish Pizza. Different catering team, mayhaps? Also for some god-knows reason, we went from solid plastic trays to flexible foam trays… like… why? I guess it was a cost cutting measure or something, because they still had the places to collect and put those trays at in all my schools, but at the same time it’s really not a cost saving measure. You’re still going to need someone to clean the kitchen equipment. I only briefly saw them return in High School, but it was for the special needs kids…
I go to an English school and every Friday they do chicken popcorn with chips and they put curry sauce on the chips and it is soo good but you don’t want to get to the canteen late
I've studied in asian countries most of my life, till 2 years ago I moved to Canada, education here is similar to America, we don't have to wear uniforms compared to most Asian schools, the teachers actually treat their students like their friends, for my school we don't have a cafeteria we normally just bring our own food, and we can go outside or eat anywhere we want like in a classroom, or near your locker, it's less strict, and the education too
Just to clear something up. I never knew that the US had isolation which was called “ISS” /"In School Suspension" Or in Some states required school uniform.

Ok senior year was probably the best year of hs, that was a straight up movie.
Alabama, my high school's lunches aren't that bad! We usually get stuffed crust pizza!
Just wanted to add a few things
1.) some public schools in America do enforce uniforms along with a dress code
2.) preschool for ages 3-4 is typically called head start (at least in my state)
3.) like everyone said the school lunches used to be good until Michelle Obama pass the healthy food law and it went down hill for most public schools but lucky for me all the school’s I’ve been to didn’t get affected as much by it
3.) in the states that do allow corporal punishment the school has to send a paper home for the parents to sign that allows them to spank/padal the kid’s if they misbehave
Cheers
I don't think it was all Michelle Obama's fault, since the lunches were already kinda terrible before that ngl
@@JUNSKULLY. I have never heard of head start, I think in most places ages 3-4 is called preschool in America
@@watermelonkingjus2677 in my experience it was her fault, because my school's lunch was amazing until she ruined it. But maybe that's just my school
Maybe, but it can't all be her. It was probably just the execution of the law, not the law itself that messed it up
I attend American public school I can tell you exactly what happened with our lunch and why it looks like that it’s not that our lunch ladies hate us it’s that back in the early 2010s Michelle Obama passed the law which it required schools to ““ make school lunches, healthier, but they didn’t. It only just lowered the quality of the food.
I remember the school lunches from my elementary school. They were the worst until I got into middle school and high school.
Yeah I remember that I was in 1st grade in 2010 and the next year the food was significantly worse.
And it stopped being school with Bush's "no child left behind" before that
This isn’t true, school lunches have always been terrible pre-Obama, I went to elementary school during the bush era and they were just the same low quality food.

I went to school in Ghana and now the US. I’m thankful every day that teachers aren’t allowed to beat us as much as Africa, but they will snitch on you to your parents

As a English based student I can confirm almost every thing said about our schools in this video and to add something we also have school uniforms for our first schools as well as our teen years of school.
My school had a system for the food you got so if you didn’t pay you got the basic food (pretty much close to what I’d consider left overs) or you could pay daily monthly or Yearly to receive specific foods.
But most of us just brought in packed lunchbox food since the school also allowed that.
11:11 Brilliant video!
They can’t banned, so Yes they definitely allowed. Anyway they can’t force the uniform because that would violates the children rights laws…
@@vilagistene2939They do. It is mandated in the vast majority of schools.
@@DogDogGodFog They can’t because that’s illegal.
@@vilagistene2939 Then why do they do it?
Yeah I just bring in a packed lunch of food and IF there is something good I’m gonna get that
American school custodian here. Maybe this is just a thing in Michigan but in certain school districts they also have intermediate schools between elementary and middle school. Also in certain areas the gap in public schools are also replaced by charter schools where they do make you wear uniforms. Great video thanks.
Fun fact more than 180 countries in the world take the British Cambridge exams for O level and A level, my country is one of those. Its really cool how 180 countries can write the same exact exam in tandem over a course of 4 weeks and the papers are shipped back to UK for marking.
They colonised us and then copy paste the education system, this has made life easy tho since I move countries so much.
The education system is also 100% same from primary, secondary and then high school the uni
Oh shooot that's actually interesting. I didnt know more than 100+ countries school exams were derived from Cambridge exams

My school used to have a really strict Head Teacher who banned sweets and any food that was taken out of the canteen and I used to be the school sweat dealer from year 8 to 9. I remember I had this massive body guard called Lewis who played rugby who I payed lollies to protect me from thieves. My main stock was lollies, crisps, sweet laces, gum and also Chewits

FYI British public schools are the really really expensive schools that only super rich people can afford. For example, Prince William and Harry went to a public school called Eton. British state schools are the ones anyone can go to.
British public schools are private schools, you have to pay to go to a public school.

In my home country (Mexico) we had a combination of both US and UK graduation celebrations, we walked through the stage and had a speech from one of the students, and a day before the ceremony many would write things in their shirts or will bring water balloons and it was a whole revolution in there.
Sadly the elementary I went to was pretty mid and they decided to print the names of everyone in our course in our shirts at least we were able to have fun in our last day by throwing water balloons

As someone who goes to American schools i can confirm lunches are bad because
There was an entire grade throwing up because the milk was at least a few years old
My friend and i witnessed the lunch ladys picking up beans that splattered on the floor and putting it on someones tray
My school got evacuated because a lunch lady somehow caught an apple on fire
This is only elementary school i dont feel like typing the rest
Bruh how is this allowed like she picked up food form the ground?! Absolutely nasty
So that’s why my chocolate milk tasted like oranges…
How the hell do you catch an apple on fire???

this was pretty interesting and THANK YOU FOR EXPLAINING THE AMERICAN SYSTEM IN A WAY I CAN UNDERSTAND IT! ive seen breakdowns/comparisons between the 2 before and even asked americans how they worked and came away with a bit of knowledge and a lot of confusion XD
btw just wanted to point out public schools in the uk are basically private schools, and what ur talking about are probably state schools ik its kinda stupid but ig its how it is :P
Ohhh state schools. Never heard of that. I normally call them public schools. Fair enough. Thanks Abi :))
@@JUNSKULLY. yh its weird, i still dont get it tbh. your welcome tho! edit: OK SO. i think public schools are a type of private school (but not all private schools are public schools), and according to wikipedia 'They are "public" in the sense of being open to pupils irrespective of locality'. Other sources state (hehe pun) them to be 'a group of long-established boarding secondary schools which charge school fees.'
State schools are the ones funded by the government, free for everyone to go to and stuff, and is the kind of school most people go to.
wow did not expect to write that much, my English teachers would be proud XD
Part of the confusion may moms from everything is different from school to school

Something I’d like to add: school drills. Don’t know if there are any school drills in the UK, but where I live (California), I can remember a few active drills we had practice annually: Fire drill, earthquake drill, and the American classic active shooter drill. Now that I’m in college I haven’t had to do this but I know the schools I went to most likely still practice these drills to this day.
yes there are school drills in the UK but we only practice fire drills and nothing else, but my god they are the MOST BORING DRILLS EVER. all of us have to line up in a goofy ahh line and walk extremely slowly and i mean like as slow as a slug all the way outside and then we have to wait a century in this dumb line next to the other classes sometimes in the rain so we would get drenched, AND WE COULDN'T EVEN SPEAK TO EACHOTHER, thank god they are rare and only happen a few times a year
@@aliacuca my school's done drills where we stay in class a lockdown I guess. And fire drills of course
The high school I went to demolished the old school and made a new one. They added smoke detectors that are so sensitive that we have 3-5 false alarms every week.
I'm UK we have a fire drill and lock down drill incase of attackers
In the UK there r fire drills
But they always do it when it's raining or cold outside just to mess with us
Live in the US and I gotta say I don't know where the hell these kids are going to get food like that! And it's not like I go to some rich school far from it, but mother of God, I've never had anything that looked like that!
really. then you got lucky
Fr people get hospitalized from our food not kidding dude
I’m in the us and my friend once got a carton of chocolate milk but it had the consistency of jello😭
one day my school served pizza with only sauce and mixed greens on top. no cheese
😆
One of my schools served raw chicken with only the skin cooked, it was so raw there was still blood in it. Someone tried to sue USA foods and the school but nothing happened, it was just swept under the rug as they kept serving us this nasty chicken, and that jello milk consistency that was in every single school I went to. There was also other nasty food that was moldy and what not but that chicken was the highlight.
They also had one desert, nothing else, which was a cookie for 2 dollars. For context, this cookie was not only about 3 inches in diameter, but it was also rock solid. A kid broke his tooth trying to bite into one, and a another kid knocked a lunch staff out by throwing it at her dome. Made a big pop sound and then she was on the floor. He used her being knocked out to start a mini chant and protest/riot thing.
It really just be so wild, I don’t know why it is like this. I personally want to blame Michelle Obama but it might have been something else. 🤷🏾♀️
5:50 my school in the uk detentions were abit different
Level 1: 5 minutes after class (during break)
Level 2: All of lunch time
Level 3: 1 hour after school
Level 4: isolation for the day
0:00 who else’s headteacher(principal) is named mr bell. This is the third school I’ve seen (including mine) which has the headteacher named mr bell
I’m from supposedly the most yee-yee state, and my school sounds luxurious compared to a lot of other public schools.
The school lunch is usually good (but when it isn’t it tastes absolutely disgusting), and there are six different lines, with a few different themes, and the pizza lines always serve the same kinds so there are consistently good ones.
It has at least 2 thousand students, so you will find the right friend group, and you can watch the wrong crowds from a distance.
Other than math, English, science, and history, you can choose the rest of the classes so that you can find potential career fields, and there’s usually one left just for fun. Even with the ones you can’t choose, you can choose how advanced they are, and in the last year, you only have to do English (sadly that’s the only one I hate)
Edit: I forgot to mention that I’m in a class where I’m learning how to make video games.
Lucky, our school food has literally hospitalized people + small town with only 300 people

in what way
How
From what I remember from when I was in school, the main reason for school uniforms was to reduce bullying. People rarely got bullied for there outfits when everyone had to ware the same stuff.
Up here in Scotland the uniform is used to identifying you since you can leave the school as lunch, so you don’t just do a runner
Honestly thought school uniforms were made just to make it easier to identify somebody or to represent a school
@@AprilSpringgall of the above
also cheaper in the long run ...
It’s not a reason for the facism!!
In my British school we skip detention you just go straight to isolation
Real🤣
Wich is better?
Bro what school you going to 😂😂
I live in the UK and we get to literally walk outside the school at lunch and go get fish and chips or make a quick stop at tesco.
The local tesco express near my school had to have staff guarding the door limiting how many people were allowed to enter at once because half the school descended on it like a plague during lunch
icl going to british schools was either the deadest thing or the funnest thing i ever done bro, when teachers shout in ur face i wouldnt be able to stop laughing but also i got detentions every lunch for some strict bs
They can’t because that illegal in UK.
@@vilagistene2939 what is
I still wish I was homeschooled, my school was not the best. It was a big school, almost 2,000 kids, but the education was so bare minimum, most teachers just put on movies, and you have to constantly put up your guard, praying some douche won't slander you to the point you wanna jump out the window and run away. It was emotionally tough, but academically too easy. (American public school in the middle of nowhere btw)
If I had any advice to any poor soul that goes to this school; convince your parents to move you to another place.
I wish I was homeschooled too.
Bro my school has double the amount of kids that your school has. The normal highschool has about 500-1000 kids, I wish I could be homeschooled too because why are there so many people, and the teachers do not care 95% of the time.
education received from homeschooling is usually lesser in quality on average so yea. i guess think about that.
@@nxxh8019 it rly isnt
@@LeoDoesEverything it really is. Unless your parents are wealthy enough for 1 parent to not work and just sit and teach her self the material so she can teach you. Then it’s gonna be worse than public schools.
For American school lunches, I remember it hitting in when I was in elementary (or primary) school and as I got to middle and high school, they just stopped trying. I brought my own lunch everyday at that point
C4 you get sent to another class, C5 you get sent to "isolation" aka impact
At my school we have level 1 and u get warning then level 2 you go to isolation and also get a detentions its too strict 😭
After being in internal twice, I can confidently say that it is underrated. A whole school day not doing much, idk if its just my school but the internal teachers just check if you have work, not if you're doing it. Honestly one of the most chill, relaxing things I've done. Also, if you're quiet anyways you'll love internal, the teachers are either messing with the six-formers or shouting at them, it's pretty hilarious. If I could I would go in internal again, but my H.O.Y said if I get internal 1 more time this year she's moving me to a new school. :(
yeah so easy - after schools were light work too, they’d tell you to write an essay about why you were there, but no one ever actually had to do it (the teachers wanted to get home as quickly as we did, no way were they going to keep you back longer than the proscribed hour)

Yeah, food in American Public schools sucks, but American Private Schools (Pre-school through MS) have amazing food, education, and are much better. Our Public schools are failures, but we have amazing private schools.
i say debatable before the whole eat healthy campain the food was pretty good and snack line was amazing after it mid not even mid below average in my opinion
Agreed but this is why I bring my own food as well. 💀
American public schools are either good or terrible
Coming from multiple states and towns where I studied education in the US, I can say that school quality isn't really regulated and sits on a spectrum where it depends on how much teachers are paid, how many students to class rooms ratio, all the different ethnicities, and it's relative safety. Going to schools from 2004 to 2018 I experienced possibly the most turbulent schooling in our time, with most changes happening around middle to high school. For elementary it was very safe, and the teachers actually wanted their students to succeed, and while the lunches weren't "healthy," they were edible and were relatively cheap. For both my middle school experiences I saw how schools ignored the healthy eating laws that Michelle Obama introduced (the worst thing she ever did) as for 6th and 7th my school was well off just doing their own thing, but for 8th I saw food quality decline and alongside that a decline in happiness and safety. As for high school, it was a shitshow, proper fights on the regular, the only food options that were available every day were frozen fruit cups and ordered pizza which they charged 4 times the price, and other than that they were offering half baked or fully burnt stuff, microwaved meals and most people would either bring food from home or go hungry. Only the older teachers were capable of teaching us while the rest were new hires straight from college. Drugs were a rampant problem bathrooms were more like fighting rings than calm spaces, and even having 3-6 police officers there at all times could not stop the anarchist setting. There would always be a hospital van there once per day. And even then racism would be blatant from our school website being hacked and replaced with slurs and other unsavory images. And to top it off the public high school was poor that they would sell small cups of water for 1 dollar and claim it was vegan (it was the hot dog water). I'm just glad I made it out of there at all.
And to close out the statement I'm glad that colleges are far better than the other schools, and most of this comes from the southern US, where they will still graduate you even if you fail all your classes. So yeah thank you for coming to my TED talk about how schooling in the US is most likely gonna destroy this country
hey man at least we have police officers and not the school recourse guard who shoots any mfers waving a sabre (not a gun unlike us :[ )
I'm my British school they call it the "behavior pathway" for some reason
It goes like this

Fun fact: we have “kindergarten” in the US because the concept didn’t really exist at the time when the first one was founded in Wisconsin in 1856 by Margarethe Schurz (the student of the originator of kindergartens in Germany). As a result, this idea of education at that age spread to other areas in the US under the name that was taken directly from German.

In some parts of the US, elementary does end after K-6. Then middle is 7-8 (at least for me), and high school is 9-12.
Oh Fr? I thought it was constant
And the school lunch is bad, but at my time, we do have the regular food that nobody eats and pizza hut.
@@JUNSKULLY. yeah it depends on the county or city you attend school in. Also in some counties in the United States they have sports teams where they compete against other middle schools too
For some reason my school the high school went from pre-4, 5-8 and 9-12, Illinois school are different I’m guessing.
K-5 6-8 9-12 for me
I’m my american public high school, because we are in a low income county they do require uniforms. Although people hate that we can only where certain colors or certain attire, they have become more lenient and allow sweatpants and leggings. School lunch is absolutely horrendous though.
In Quebec we have grade 1-2 which is elementary then 3 to 6 as middle school and then in high school we call it secondary 1,2,3,4,5
In my school k-2 grades are elementary school, 3-5 are intermediate, 6-8 are middle, and then the high school stuff I forgot about
Actually in my middle school, in the U.S, we had lunch detentions, in the classroom of the teacher that assigned one.
But if I remember correctly, I think if the teacher was absent or something, it's an in school suspension (isolation) in the office w/ sh¡tty food from lunch.
certain schools require a uniform most of the time its navy or tan kakis and a shirt of whatever school color most of the time its white and then you can wear your own hoodie with it and thats how people get away with wearing regular shirts
I remember almost nothing of my UK high school education. My memories of it are blurred, voices of teachers and friends sound like the teacher from Charlie Brown. I vaguely remember getting isolation for something and I remember getting out of a class early to play away football fixtures. I must have been one of the "clever" ones, because I did a degree (Spanish & History). Recently found out my school got closed down and it's now a Barrett Homes estate.
6:44 goddamn bro, the teeth kiss was on point, shii hit different 😅
Yeah sort of sums up my time at a UK school. Honestly those Chefs in the canteen were cooking some days. Also the lessons were interactive and engaging.
I'm about to end school (year 11)
It's been vibes, gone to english and welsh schools, just sad corona fucked so much things up and i didn't get to enjoy the middle years of secondary school
I think how i would describe british schools is that you'll hate it or love it depending on who you are and what school you're going to
Gonna miss this though, there will never be anything quite like it again after this 😔
ayyy I'm in year 11 too

Physical discipline is an admittedly controversial topic in some states. I remember after graduating high school, a teacher found herself in hot water for disciplining a kindergarten student. This was in Florida obviously, where I believe physical discipline is banned
08:51 people had assembly after their GCSE's?
when the year above me finished their GCSE's they were chased out of the school using broomsticks as they were no longer a part of the school
“Isolation” is called alop in some aeras
Also lunches depend in region, some areas have bussing lunches
When I left school in the UK in the late 80s we did not have proms. We signed shirts and throw eggs and flour at each other. Pretty everything seem the same, plus school dinner now has more choice.
We had prom in the early 2000s for mine but from what I heard most of the guys didn't show up because most guys didn't own a suit that young and the girls ofc dressed up super nice. Not unlike the whole Harry Potter depiction of it where if you didn't succeed with getting a dance partner and good suit, you'd feel a mega failure. The handful of confident guys who showed up were definitely showered with female attention.
Aussie schools are similar to British schools ngl. Year 1-6 is primary and year 7-12 is high school. We have to bring our own lunches though. You can go to the tuckshop and buy overpriced food but it’s GOOD. They are strict about uniforms too 💀 The sport teachers are the chillest though (also this info might vary depending where you are from)
We had "isolation" during High School but they didn't call it that. It's called OCR and it was mostly a joke. It's the same set up but there'd always be a security guard there and they'd walk out like 6-8 times during the time so we could go on our phone or do whatever. Most people who were there were on suspension (we had on-school and off-school suspensions) but I got send there a few times just for small shit. It was the equivalent of a person with an infraction being locked up with a 5x felony gang banger... like bro a lot of times I'd be like why am I in here 😂
You didn't mention that once out of secondary school you don't have to go to college, you can get a job or an apprenticeship
7:20 i recognise that tree😂😂

As an Australian a lot of the British terms are familiar but we also use them a bit different
Terms are just 1 of the 4 semesters you do per year in primary/high school
You only use semester for University : D
Aussie school seems lit
it's the same in my school, though go to school in the US
Money is genuinely the decider here. At my private school, all of our meals are fresh and made by chefs (our lunches have won awards because of their quality). However if you were to drive out of the area and go to a public school, I've heard that they have disgusting processed lunches.
Yeah one thing I’ve noticed about America is the private schools are amazing… public schools are an actual dumpster fire though and most people are often better off homeschooled
@whyisyes3957 not really better off home schooled especially If u live in a half decent area. It builds like zero character and ur life be boring asf
The whole uniform thing to avoid poor kids from being bullied is cap because you have to buy the uniforms yourself so the poor kids will have to wear their small ass blazers and trousers even if they outgrow them if their parents can't (or won't) buy them
I think the whole food thing is also dependent on the school. I went to an academy so they got to spend their funding on whatever they wanted so the school got actual caterers for the food, and in London at least there's a load of academies idk how many there are in the US
I remember they doubled down on Uniforms in Scotland after the dunblane shooting , and said that it helps identify students and people who arent meant to be on school premises.
and youd get into trouble for not wearing them.
It's actually worse today because of the Academy schools trying to flex on regular schools. Now all schools have their own blazer with school coat of arms on it you have to buy.
If uniforms were free, I'd respect the idea of uniforms.
I wasnt shocked when you said you schooled in Ghana for a bit because your accent comes out a bit, but as soon as you said you looked like lil nas i knew we are literally the same person because thats what they all say about me too lmfao
Yes, his Informal London English has some Nigerian/Ghanian accent influence
They do it differently in Scotland they have nursery for two years then primary for seven and after that they have high school for 6 years then off to college or university (also we don’t have isolation)
Our school has had 3 school shooting threats this year
ours had a bomb threat last year

“Come here now.” The professor said calmly.
For the “grade/year” system, the video was using, from what I can tell, English rules. In Scotland its slightly different, here, it’s from 3-5 year olds in nursery followed by 7 years of primary school then 6 years of secondary school. These are normally shortened to “p1-7” and “S1-6”. In the part of Scotland I live in you can leave in S5 and go into early employment or work experience. For lunches, we can go “out”. In our town there are many places that serve food and a couple of shops which means we are allowed to go to one of these to get something to eat. Most of the places are fish and chip shops because it’s Britain. Uniform is accurate, we must wear a uniform however, it’s less as strict, you don’t have to wear a blazer but you have to wear a shirt, smart trousers (pants😅) and black/dark gray shoes. That all I could see that was different for me and I am not totally aware of what happens for all the other schools around.
Yeah like who the fuck decided Scotland should have a different education system than the rest of the UK, like seriously try explaining our exam system to an English persoj
Was waiting for someone to mention this lol. Yeah here in Scotland they are way more lenient with school uniform, I haven't seen or heard of a single person in my school getting dress-coded once (and trust me the people in my school are some of the most wackiest mfs). The being able to go out for lunch rule kinda sucks cause theres always that bastard that comes into class half an hour late with the excuse "the bus broke down" lmfao
@@vvivi6110 haha. Yeah that's so true
@@vvivi6110my school is an exception. Our teachers go insane if you don’t wear a blazer while out of class. Especially to the S5-6.
Yeah we had a dodgy unmarked burger van that parked just outside the school gates. Some schools are near the sea and pupils can go for a walk on the beach during lunchtime (this is secondary school only). Being more than 5 minutes late back from lunch just meant you'd be marked as not in class, not a problem unless it adds up. Uniform heavily depended on head teacher, we had many new ones come in and they'd always start off with strict new rules then give up a few months in. Eventually settled on _please_ just wear a tie, and would hand out ties to anyone not wearing one. English schools are bonkers with their getting sent home over the wrong shoes, it's not reasonable.

You keep saying in the Uk but Scotland is a bit different from England. Idk about northern Ireland or Wales though.
In Scotland nursery is the same, but then you go from primary 1 up to primary 7. Following this secondary school or high school for 4-6 years depending on the person. In year four of high school (commonly called S4) you take exams called national 5's. From this point forward you can choose to leave school (by this time you are 15-16 years old). If you choose to stay on you can do highers in 5th and 6th year. Also in 6th year you can take advanced highers which are quite simialar in content to first year of university (should you choose to go there). With enough qualifications you can go into college/uni and do all that further education stuff.
0:35 “COME HERE NOW!”
Dumbledore said calmly.
7:14 actually reminds me
Basically back in secondary I was the quiet kid that was liked by most of the teachers and all of the lunch ladies
So one day they basically allowed me to skip to the front of the line everyday which the first time made the student at the front understandably fuming about it
But hey
How can you say no to pancakes and waffles with honey or syrup for 2 quid?
The shock i felt when i recognised my secondary school's logo in one of the clips. I ain't seen it in so long
From 3-4 you go to nursery or pre-school, so our pre-school just begins sooner. And primary school in the uk is reception to year 6, or like me, you go to infant school from reception to year 2, then junior school from year 3 to year 6
Bro last day of high school I just dipped with my mate, fuck prom fuck signing shirts, lmao. After the dead final assembly I wasn’t planning on sticking around.
Me on last day of school : can i go home now?
Slightly different in Scotland. Reception is basically just year one or kindergarten. We skip that bit and go from primary 1 at age 4 up to primary 7 at 12. Then in high school it's S1 to S6. We don't really have middle school in the UK either.
Consequences in British high schools can also vary, like mine used to have C1, C2, C3 and C4 but now we don't even get warnings if we're 5 mins late we can be sent to reflection which is isolation but better
4:24 i know someone who looks exactly like the kid in this clip
I've been to American Middle school and British High school, I can relate
We actually had some decent school lunches in the district I was taught in. Like, I really miss it for some reason… especially the Deep Dish Pizza from 6th-8th grade. The school I went to, you could get that if you weren’t feeling the other options, and make a whole meal on its own. After that… well, the food was still good, but High School dropped the Deep Dish Pizza. Different catering team, mayhaps?
Also for some god-knows reason, we went from solid plastic trays to flexible foam trays… like… why? I guess it was a cost cutting measure or something, because they still had the places to collect and put those trays at in all my schools, but at the same time it’s really not a cost saving measure. You’re still going to need someone to clean the kitchen equipment. I only briefly saw them return in High School, but it was for the special needs kids…
I go to an English school and every Friday they do chicken popcorn with chips and they put curry sauce on the chips and it is soo good but you don’t want to get to the canteen late
0:45 Bro wasn't happy about the food lol
2:15 it’s called kindergarten because in Germany “kinder” is kid, so it’s just kidgarten
Garten is "garden"
So it translates fully to child garden
Sorry for being 6 months late lol
4:55 i go to that school
I've studied in asian countries most of my life, till 2 years ago I moved to Canada, education here is similar to America, we don't have to wear uniforms compared to most Asian schools, the teachers actually treat their students like their friends, for my school we don't have a cafeteria we normally just bring our own food, and we can go outside or eat anywhere we want like in a classroom, or near your locker, it's less strict, and the education too
Cafeterias are usually only in high school, so I assume ur still in middle school.
7:06 happens a lot at my school, granted, it takes like fifteen minutes to get from one side to the other and there’s about 2200 students lol
Damn genuinely helpful
3:25 its y13 for me
12 and 13 are sixth form/college
Your accent is fire by the way 🇺🇸🇬🇧
