Which school to choose: ordinary or prestigious?

The main thing is to find your teacher

Where to send the child to the first grade? Go to a regular school around the corner? Or hope that there will be a free place in a prestigious gymnasium in another area? Very soon, parents of first-graders will have to make a difficult choice.

Discussions about which school to choose take place on various parent portals. “We take the children to the kindergarten, it is not within walking distance, but somehow it is not at all ready to take them to school for 11 years. Okay, they are still small, but in five years, I think the long distance between home and school will become a big problem. Therefore, my children will go to school in the yard.” “By hook or by crook I will try to get into this lyceum. All of its graduates definitely go to universities, you need to think about the future of the child in advance. And to transport from the right to the left bank is not a problem for us.”

The most important question that worries moms and dads: can a child succeed if he studies in the most ordinary educational institution?

Tatyana Kazanova, director of school No. 10, is sure that a student’s success depends on several components.

– Don’t think that it is enough to send your child to a prestigious educational institution, and then his future will be cloudless, she says. – The success of education depends on the teacher, parents and the student himself. First of all, moms and dads should motivate the child to study. Sending the baby to the first grade, you need to choose not a school, but a teacher. There are good teachers in every school. Even if next to you is an ordinary school that is not equipped with the latest technology, this does not mean at all that all its graduates are doomed to a poor education.

Tatyana Ivanovna notes that more often success is achieved not by those guys who grow up in wealthy families and can take the most expensive courses and with the best tutors, but those who are motivated to get an education.

– I can give you two examples, – the director of the school says. – A few years ago, a schoolboy who was raised by his mother alone received a governor’s scholarship. The boy really wanted to study, and the financial possibilities of the family were very limited. When the child was invited to the governor’s award ceremony, all the relatives chipped in to buy him an elegant suit. After graduation, the boy decided to go to Moscow to enter. Mom was very worried, again collecting money in debt … Now the guy is successfully studying in the capital. Another girl, studying in the tenth grade of an ordinary, non-specialized school, went around everyone in her knowledge of the English language and went on a ready-made internship in the USA. Moreover, she did not attend classes with tutors and additional courses in a foreign language, she was also raised by one mother. Then the girl entered the Linguistic Institute in Moscow, made a career. This is because these guys really wanted to get knowledge and use it competently.

“We went to a more than ordinary school on the outskirts of the city,” says Irina. – Now I understand that the level of education in most subjects was, to put it mildly, not up to par. But all my classmates, who really wanted to succeed, entered universities, now they work in the professions they dreamed of. Among us there is a judge, a doctor, a director of our own firm, and not just one, bank employees. Yes, there are guys who have already visited places not so remote, someone was killed by alcohol and drugs. But, I repeat, those who wanted to achieve something, they succeeded. Apparently, success depends on the family.”

The problem of choosing a school has been complicated by the new federal law on education, most of whose articles have come into force since this school year. As you know, now all educational institutions are required to first recruit children living in the micro-section belonging to this institution. And only then – to the remaining places of the rest of those who wish. Naturally, not everyone can get into the desired school.

– We really wanted to send our daughter to a gymnasium with in-depth study of foreign languages, – says Anna Osinova. – Now we are attending “Preschool” in this gymnasium. But the director warned that she would first recruit students from the micro-section. I’m afraid that we will not get into this gymnasium, we will go to a regular school at the place of residence. That’s just in the ranking of urban educational institutions, it is at the very end. So, there will be no sense in training in it?

Tatyana Kazanova reassures her parents: she did not see the connection between the quality of education and places in the ranking, although she studied all the evaluation criteria in detail.

– Even the USE results were compared incorrectly. For example, in one school two people took chemistry, in another – twenty-two, how can you compare the average score between these institutions? – Tatyana Ivanovna comments on the rating. – The same applies to other items. For example, the level of equipment of establishments. Let’s start with the fact that a priori gymnasiums and lyceums have different funding, therefore, they have more money for equipment. And how can you compare the health of schoolchildren? This indicator was also taken into account when compiling the rating. The result was an incomprehensible list that offended many – teachers, parents, and schoolchildren. You do not need to be equal to him when choosing an educational institution. I repeat: I advise parents of first-graders to look for a good teacher, and they are in every school.

Why my children will never go to school: madam_shazly — LiveJournal

UNEXPLAINED DISCRIMINATION! St. Joseph’s School accepts only children whose parents (both) have higher education. At the same time, if the mother is a foreigner, then it is necessary to provide the original diploma, certified by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the ARE in Moscow. At the same time, a lot of money is paid for admission, or rather, not even for admission …


Two years before the start of the study period, you must be on the waiting list. Paying for this loot. At the same time, it is not a fact that the child will be taken. And what does the presence of higher education from both parents have to the intellectual abilities of the offspring, I can’t even imagine.

School fees in Hurghada are unrealistic, up to 30,000 euros per year. At the same time, knowledge is a double-empty. And every second mother who managed to survive to graduation classes is surprised to learn that once again someone somewhere did not renew her license, they gave this one, they didn’t give it, and after studying at the school “at the embassy” for ten years, the child arrives to this very embassy for exams, and they tell him that he is not registered anywhere, and his education is not considered to be received. The same thing happens with European mega-packed trainings. Paying a few thousand pounds a month is no guarantee of any future.

Regarding the level of Arab national schools, I just keep quiet, it’s not even a horror, it’s a disaster, and I once showed photos of what a typical Hurghada “national school” looks like. Nightmare, huh?

Children’s locker: Classroom lease term – 10 dull years

My personal memories of school are an even bigger nightmare. To my great regret, the school is an obligation. Education “should be”. That is, to get rid of a bunch of completely useless information will not work with all the desire. And I would be very happy to do so. Because, to be honest, of everything that I have been studying for ten years, I only know Russian. And then I never taught him according to the school curriculum. Everything that I can do with this subject, I developed on my own, by the practice of reading and writing.

Mathematics – beyond the multiplication table I have zero. In biology – damn it, but I don’t even remember who we have a single-celled one, in addition to a couple of hundred representatives in the Brownian troll LJ. Geography-wise, I’m proud to know that Sydney isn’t fucking the capital of Australia. By the way, most people don’t even know this. And they are very surprised when they find out. Okay, what are you? However, it’s good if it ends in surprise. Sassy Egyptian teachers can give a student a deuce, cross out the correct answer and say that the Himalayas are in South America, the clouds are blue, the right hand is on the left, and sugar grows on a tree. These are all the pearls I collected from school notebooks photographed by my mothers, where bowls crossed out the correct answers and defiantly sculpted nonsense.

But most of all I don’t understand why I need to memorize a bunch of historical dates that I don’t need, and even more so, why should I read literature written by drunkards, pedophiles, duelists, suicidal people and other crazy people at the age of eight, ten years, for which the juvenile would cry now justice, along with the nearest prison for death row. I don’t understand why I had to study, analyze and sort out with a foolish teacher what the author of some alcoholic verse had in mind.

The school education system is stupid, meaningless and out of date. Children are taught to “trumpet from bell to bell”, while there is no connection to the result, you just need to sit out the lesson on your ass. Even such a word is foolish, I directly hate it – perseverance. That is, the ability of a normal, active person to be silently bored, to forcefully shove a bunch of useless informational rubbish into himself, the meaning of which is incomprehensible until the very exams, and at the same time not dare to entertain himself with something, ranging from pulling chewing gum on the table top, and ending with well-aimed shooting at the back of the neighbor’s head with a pen and chewed paper.

The biggest proof of the total futility of ten years of swotting is that 99% of the people I’ve met in my life don’t remember 99% of everything they learned in school. The one remaining percent are school teachers who are forced to remember all the nonsense that they now teach further to the next generation of unfortunates.

When I read Olga Yurkovskaya’s mini-books from the course for responsible parents (they are FREE at this link), I expected anything – the next instructions, impossible proposals or speculative reflections on the topic of where to get ten hours a day for parenting classes with baby. But here’s what I couldn’t imagine, that at least someone shares my tough position regarding the uselessness of the obvious harmfulness of the school. Least of all, I expected to see explanations why my own position is the only correct one for caring and responsible parents.

The whole point of the school comes down to the fact that it is a mixture of obligatory work with luggage storage. Considering that in Hurghada it is also supposed to pay big money for this, I see the point in spending the same money on good tutors and individual subject courses. One hell is all the children who want to go not to vocational schools, but to normal universities, after school sit and gouge their own school subjects with the same private teachers. For the same big money – only after the big money is paid for the storage facility.

It’s cheaper and easier for me to keep my child at home with a private tutor than to send him to an ugly attitude to the process of acquiring knowledge. At the same time, the main objections of the school’s defenders, frankly, are not worth a damn. The whole point is simply that working parents cannot leave a child alone. And the school is free. It’s convenient – in the morning I handed over, in the evening I took it.

But in our case, it is paid, and I, like every other parent, have the same disgusting memories behind me. And in Hurghada, I am amazed at one thing: it really doesn’t hurt when parents subject their own children for money to the same torture that they themselves went through? Endless stupid cramming, a useless pile of knowledge, jitters on tests, a belt for grades and, as a result, a complete zero in my head the next day after the entrance exams.
