A school is an educational establishment designed to offer learning environments and learning spaces for children under the guidance of qualified teachers. Most developed countries now have systems of informal education, which may be entirely or partially compulsory. In these systems, children progress from a single school to a series of secondary schools. The emerging multihued system of secondary and high school education in many countries has led to the growth of a wide variety of curricula and practices.
There are several different types of school available. Most primary schools are public institutions chartered by states to provide education to children from kindergarten age upwards. Independent schools are not governed by any governmental authority and are generally set up for profit – though some, like the Catholic Church, are private, religious associations established to offer education. Private boarding and day schools also offer the same basic educational opportunities as state schools, though typically at a tuition level which is far below the average. There are also free schools, usually home based or funded through local programs, which offer the same academic and social programs as a regular school.
The curriculum is determined by each individual state. Most states now require that a National Association of Schools of Reinsented Teaching (NASTR) representative is present at each public school in order to determine the makeup of its academic curriculum. Over time, the balance has shifted towards a more national role, with NASTR taking over the role of establishing the National Association of Schools of Teaching accreditation. However, the trend is toward continuing local control of public education. As noted above, most special schools are operated by the local council.
Public special schools are independent associations established by municipalities or other entities to serve students within a certain geographical area. Examples include public elementary schools in New York City and Chicago, Illinois, both of which operate separately from the Chicago school system. Special schools of this nature were founded in the late nineteenth century, when progressive movements in education took a radical turn. At the beginning, public education was primarily established to help people who were physically or mentally handicapped obtain a degree or higher qualification to achieve a better job or increase their occupational potential.
Social class was seen as a key factor contributing to poor educational outcomes, so in the early years of the twentieth century, special schools began to be created to help people from different socio-economic backgrounds integrate into the school system. For example, poor students in the rural areas could not get enough classroom time to learn English, so ESL was introduced as a teaching resource for these students. Over time, the focus on social integration waned, as schools became more focused on passing state tests and getting into college. In the early part of the 20th century, many public school teachers believed that things happened to them because of the color of their skin or the blood they drank.
The first thing that changed for me personally was when I realized that my asthma got worse at a young age. My mother always told me that if I was having trouble sleeping, it was because I was so stressed out. She thought I should find my peace by learning proper sleeping techniques. She was right. It’s important to find your own way to relax, especially if you are young and going through some very hard times.
