A school assigment i got Aus

"for your best, son"

In this blog post I wanted to talk about an assignment I got on school. The assignment was about summarizing and then compere a novel that had a British author so I choose the novel "For your best, son!" by Elizabeth George (some of you might say she is an American but you are partly right and partly not). So that is what I am going to talk about today in this blog. "For your best, son!" is about a boy (Leo) that have to change from a state school to a public school I myself go to a public school or as some people like to call it an Independent school in oxford and it isn’t that bad although they are a bit strict and have a lot of rules there, back to the novel Leo isn’t happy about changing school and we can see that in the first sentence of the novel, he want to stay with his friends in the state school and says that he is to young. And i agree with the boy he is to young and there is younger people in state school I learned that children can be put in state school when they are 4 or 4.5 I personally think that putting you child in school when they are four is too young, what do you think? The private school (he is forced to go to) is also a very long way from his home and he is only 8 years old. Moving in to a public school was his father’s idea his father thought partly that since he did go to Baverstcok (the public school) his son should to, I say partly because it seems like that he went to this school isn’t the only reason he want his son to go, it seems like he also wanted his son to go to school just so he could be part of an upper class. While his wife thinks that it’s nothing wrong with going through life with being just in the working class while his father wanted him to be the best (the upper class). But in what cost? If he changes school he will lose his friends and he will maybe not get new ones. furthermore i think he should stay and not change school, but in the other side he is only a child and he will only go where his friend are. i
