A secondary school is a school for children aged 11-18, that you don't have to pay for and you don't have to pass an exam to get in to. A 5 comprehensive school is a selective school. This means you have to pass an exam to go there. Parents have to pay fees for their children to go to 6 private schools. Some schools are single-sex , so they are for boys or for girls only, but most schools are 8 mixedю When they are 16, pupils take their GCSE examinations.
