this girl named teylor asked, "what is school like in Jamaica?"
here is my responds

to start in off i'm just going to make you know that we wear uniform. in 4 grade we do the 4th grade  achievement  test i don't know if you do that in the UK but.. anyways in 6th grade we do GSAT that sixth grade achievement test  and when you pat that you go to a good high school and if you don't you g to a stupid school a good school in Jamaica is called a traditional high school people from all over the Caribbean do the same exact tests at the same exact time. but if you go to a junior high school you don't do GSAT you do GNAT grade night achievement test and if you past that you go to a  traditional  high school. and in high school when your in 10th or 11th grade you do CXC i don't know what that mean but i know Caribbean is in it and that gives you your subjects to get a job or go to college but if you what more subjects you do CSEC in college or pre university 
let me explain the subject thing i don't know if you know but the subject that you are good at and you get high grades you keep that but math and English is a most so people always do that because when you getting a job those thing are very important 
so right now i'm going in 9th grade but i'm supposed to be in 10 i'm not in 10 grade because when i was supposed to do my GSAT me and my brother alost have the same name so the carried it to the ministry of education ad the thought i was an err so they trough my papers away so i didn't go to high school i'd have to go to a private school but my mom didn't have any money so i had to repeat the sixth grade and do over the GSAT 
but other that that school in Jamaica if fine and i love all my friends how is school in great Great Britain?
