You think YOUR school is strict..we HAVE to wear a green tartan kilt and not allowed ANY jewelry or hair dye :P anyway the tricks we always use are subtle make-up that teachers wont notice but makes you look good e.g mascara and powder. wear knee length socks..i really like them and they look cute and sexy at the same time and wear your hair kind of disheveled as though you've just got out of bed and it looks great. just wear it kind of messy that way it doesn't take too long to do in the mornings :D Sorry about the essay, i talk too much :P Hope it helps

Schools in UK are to have a lesson in manners. Is this on the curriculum in other countries

Schools in UK are to have a lesson in manners. Is this on the curriculum in other countries ?
Schools to teach good manners By DAVID WOODING Whitehall Editor April 30, 2007 COMMENT ON THIS STORY PUPILS will be taught good manners at secondary school in a bid to cut yob behaviour. They will spend an hour a week learning the golden rules of being polite and considerate. These include how to behave at the dinner table, when to say â€œpleaseâ€� and â€œthank youâ€� and how to show respect to others. Ministers believe â€œsocial and emotional intelligenceâ€� classes will help stop children from turning into teenage louts. All secondary schools will be urged to put them into timetables for 11 to 14-year-olds from September. New guidance will encourage teachers to show kids how to tackle anger and frustration without losing their cool. The action comes after trials led to dramatically improved behaviour and pupil achievement. Primary schools which took part in the scheme found bullying and truancy fell and classrooms were calmer. from today's sun newspaper online http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2-2007190804,00.html so the yob culture is alive ad well in Australia and India too? open to all countries just want to ascertain 1. we have yobs every where 2. what peope are doing abt it elsewhere

I think this would be good to get into the schools but it would be good to get the parents to teach this at home too!!! It should start at home from when the kids are very young!!!

Depends how rich you are but there are several. Eton is a good one. it also depends where in the UK you want to study. For a list of some of these schools, try the department for education and skills website: www.dfee.gov.uk it even has performance tables for many schools. hope this helps
2 :
Here are some suggestions - friends of mine graduated from these schools and loved their time there. Many boarding schools are single-sex, so unless otherwise specified, these are girls schools: Roedean (www.roedean.co.uk), Benenden (www.benenden.kent.sch.uk), Charterhouse (girls: 6th form only) (www.charterhouse.org.uk), Wycombe Abbey (www.wycombeabbey.com), Marlborough College (mixed) (www.marlboroughcollege.org) Hope that helps.

Eton (nr London), Harrow (nr London), Winchester (Hampshire), Radleigh (nr Oxford), St. Edward's (Oxford), Abingdon (nr Oxford), Sedbergh (Cumbria), Rugby, Marlborough, Shrewsbury, and St. Paul's (London) are all examples of traditional private schools in the UK (usually called "Public Schools" for some reason). Some are only mixed for the 6th form. Milfield is a less traditional school but has a very good reputation, particularly for sport, and pushes students to do more than just study. Not sure of other places in this category.
