(PART 2)
-Private schools:
Private schools are basically schools that are not under the government. They usually run on the money they get or the CEO is like so rich. I am now studying in a private school. (I'm not THAT rich, okay?) Depending on the private schools, there are schools that requires a uniform, and there are some that don't. Private schools usually provide services for Malaysian and international students. They also provide O'levels or A'levels. There are also boarding schools. The half gov. and half private are usually boarding schools. They rely on the governments money but have their own uniform and style of system. I had attended a half gov, half private boarding school too.

I'm not gonna touch on the other two since this is already part two. So to my opinion on my schools.

The students in government schools have to attend school for 11 years (elementary 6 years, high/middle 5 years). The teachers are probably selected by the government and they are usually a little strict in boarding schools. By the end of the year, for those who are sec 3, they will take PMR and for those who are sec 5, they will take SPM. Unfortunately PMR is now gone. I was the last batch of PMR and I felt awesome Muahahahah!! XD The teachers there are okay. The system can be a little unfair to me as I was not anyone special (prefect, librarian, head of the class, head of a club)

Students in private schools have to attend the school depending on how many years the school requires. My school ends at form 4 and we will graduate with and IGCSE exam.

I don't pratically hate all of the schools I attended, but there's always that one thing that will make me dislike it. But, heck, there are no school that is perfect. *shrugs*

Well, in Malaysia.. (PART 1)
There are (i think) 4 types of schools [excluding nurseries and kindergarten];
-Government Schools:
This is divided into 3 (Boarding schools, middle/high schools, elementary schools]. Government schools are the most common schools here. I am only gonna touch on high/middle schools and a little on boarding.
There is a special uniform for it throughout the country.
For girls it would be a turquoise pinafore over white shirt (Form 1 to Form 5); or
Turquoise skirt with white blouse (generally only for Form 6 students); or
White baju kurung (a long tunic that covers the arms) over long turquoise skirt (Form 1 to Form 6) [and for Muslims, a white hijab].
For guys it would be White shirt and Olive green long trousers; or Olive green short trousers; or White trousers (generally only for Form 6 students). In some schools, Muslims are required to wear a black Songkok.
Government schools usually starts at 7.30 AM and end at about 12 noon for the morning period. (They divide the students into two, the morning period and the afternoon period). For the afternoon period, they usually start at 1.30 or 2 pm and end at 6pm. There are also some extra co-curicullums.
To identify if it's a high/middle government school, there is also the word SMK (which means Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan) in the front of the name.

usually government boarding schools are considered prestigous (is that how you spell it?). They are one of the best in the country. Government boarding schools include MRSM, IMTIAZ, Ulul Al-Bab, SMA and others. The students will usually have the same clothes but for islamic schools, the uniforms are slightly diferrent on friday. All of the students will wear a white shirt/baju kurung and a specified kain songket, depending on the school. Some government boarding schools are half government and half private. so let me touch on private schools.

well we usually have to attent 'regular' schools for 10 years and afterwards there are different possibilities what to chose.. but actually you are first done ith school after 12 years. our school days always depend on what kind of school you attent to.

after elementary school we get a..well something that tells us where to go next

a school for those who are..uuhm less good or handicaped

a school for the ones that are not too dumb but not bright either (I mean not the genius type)

and finally the school for the more intelligent or more hard working kids

the lenght of the days is different in these schools

since i was in the middle one my day was from 8am till 2pm but my friend who went to the school for.uuh..the better ones said her day was from 7am till 2:45pm or even after 3pm

the teachers also depend on where they work, in school number one they are less motivated to teach and most of the time even tell the kids that they will have no future, the kids really suffer there and only a few of them manage to get good enough grades to come to school 2

in school 2 the teachers sometimes are good but i guess i was unlucky cuz mine knew nothing so i never really got any education (I wonder how i managed to finish school)

in school 3 the teacher are roboter, they don´t teach you anymore, they just talk about stuff and you have to find out everything about it on your own, if you don´t do it you will fail

i hated my schol so..yeah

where are you from, i´m from germany
