Part 1 Introduction to Education
The way pupils behave at school: what is more important –
knowledge or social skills? Comment on the epigraph of this
part.
1. a) Warm-up. Discuss:
Two people are describing their school life:
It's really boring.
The uniform is so old fashioned. Most of
the lessons are a waste of time. (Tom)
Sometimes it was hard but I enjoyed it. I hated the exams. I
made some really good friends there. (Sophie)
Which person is studying at school now? Which person is remembering their life
at school? What do you remember most about your school days?
What was your attitude to school? What should a good school
be like?
b1) Read the story and answer questions: 1. Was Sarah a good student
when she was young? 2. When did things start to go wrong? 3. Why was Sarah in
trouble with her teachers? 4. Why do you think her personality has changed?
My daughter Sarah used to be the
perfect student. Even at kindergarten her
teachers said she was a really intelligent
girl. When she grew up, she was always
put into the 'A' stream in all her subjects.
Her friends even gave her the nickname
Einstein because she was so smart.
Suddenly, when she was fifteen years old,
everything started to go wrong. One night,
she came home late from school I thought that she had gone round to her friend's
house, but two weeks later we discovered that she had been given a detention period

for smoking in school. We talked to her teachers and they told us that she was a clever
child, but she misbehaved in class. She had been staying away from school and she'd
missed a lot of lessons. They were always giving her lines to write for playing truant
or refusing to wear the school uniform. Three days later, the headteacher called and
told me that Sarah was in trouble again (this time for stealing some CD's from another
student). At first I thought that there must be some mistake! My daughter always used
ft be a swot, not a bully!

c) Now Sarah's father wants to have a serious talk with his
daughter.
Sarah. Where do you think you're
going?
OK. They say that I stole some CDs.
But they're lying! I didn't do anything.
Sarah, why don't you just grow up and
explain what happened. Your teacher
said that the police interviewed you
this morning.
I'm meeting Joe and we're going to a party.
You're not going anywhere! Sit down and explain what's going on. Why did
the school telephone me this morning?
I've got no idea. You tell me.
