British international schools will offer IGCSE courses and A-level courses, while American international schools will generally offer AP courses. In fact, the IGCSE course in Britain is equivalent to the course of Grade Three and Grade One in China, but? A-level course is equivalent to the courses from grade three to grade one in China. And only after completing these two courses can you apply for a university. At present, there are two kinds of schools in Britain. One is foreign-funded schools such as Dewei and Hello 13 years. The other is 12 years private school. Most of these schools will teach English courses to students, but more schools will let students study English high schools with four-year and three-year courses.
American AP course belongs to the preparatory course of American universities, and it is also the most common course in international classes of public schools and American schools. The theoretical knowledge of AP course is very difficult, which is equivalent to the final exam of freshmen in China. However, APP is not the most comprehensive curriculum system, because there are no subject restrictions and only three or four courses are needed.
Differences in educational concepts
Education in Britain can be traced back to a long time ago, so education in Britain is more traditional, and the educational concept emphasizes morality and education. The educational model of British schools is also relatively strict, focusing on cultivating gentlemen and ladies. Because students in British schools have teachers' rules about when to do and what not to do, when to wear a suit and when to wear a dress, there are few students who smoke, drink, make up and get their ears pierced in British schools.
American educational philosophy is more about advocating freedom and asking students to do what they like. May also be influenced by the times, the pursuit of equality, innovation and freedom, so the students in American schools, after all, have personality, and more emphasis on independence. Teachers will also encourage students to play freely and not be bound by anything, so students in American schools are not bound or standardized, and their interest has always been supreme.
