- Unit 2: education
- French students go to school from 8am to 4pm and don't attend school on a Wednesday or Sunday.
- I think it is important for schools to remain secular to promote science but failure to teach religious education may not give students understandingor empathy for religious beliefs.
- According to PISA, French students are more affected by their social and economic situation than other European countries.
- French students also face a lack of student-teacher support which creates anxiety and low-self esteem.
- France doesn't appear to put as much pressure on pupils as they spend less time studying, have less school anxiety and less bullying.
- Only 7.4% of French students are dissatisfied with their life.
- If I did the French baccalaureate I would want to do the scientific path as I like psychology and biology.
- Les grandes écoles are more prestigious but I wouldn't want to go to one because studying for two years on top of la lycée to get into university is unnecessary.
- Un-employment amongst young people is double that of the UK in 2014 and is said to be due to a lack of workplace skills.
- When one has finished la lycée and doesn't want to go to university immediately, they can go on a gap year. This would allow them work and life experience to take into university.
- Having a degree shows employers that you have employable skills which means you are more likely to secure a secure job. Universities also help graduates to get jobs.
- I think universities want you more if you have specialised before, but for young people it is important to keep their options open.
- Pros of higher education in France - low tuition fees, low rent costs and more graduate opportunities.
- Cons of higher education in France - high living costs and difficulties getting into private universities.
