The importance of religion in Irish schools

A visit to Kings Hospital school convinced me once again that Irish schools are not inferior to British ones either in terms of education and results, or in terms of school territory and infrastructure, or in the mood and feeling of joy from the work done by the students themselves.Kings Hospital is owned by the Church of Ireland. In fact, this means that the church maintains the school and appoints a board of directors to manage the school. In addition, the Irish are very keen on their traditions and respect for religion.

The opinion of a student about Alexanders College.

As I wrote earlier, our students all love the short English programs at Alexanders College.Our constant student Vika shares her impressions of the program.

A trip to Caxton College, Valencia

Polina's story about her experience at Caxton College impressed me so much that I decided to visit the school to feel the atmosphere myself. I made an appointment for Friday morning.

It takes 20 minutes to get from the center of Valencia, so many…

Military Academy of The Royal Hospital, United Kingdom

It was always interesting for me to see what a military high school is. Therefore, the opportunity to visit The Royal Hospital Naval Academy formed the basis of my next tour of the UK schools.
