COMPREHENSIVE SCHOOLS La mayoría de las escuelas de educación secundaria en el Reino Unido se conocen como comprehensive schools y ofrecen una gran variedad de asignaturas para cubrir las necesidades educativas de alumnos con diferentes aptitudes. Fueron creadas en los años sesenta en un intento de fomentar la igualdad de oportunidades y acabar con la división tradicional entre los centros selectivos de enseñanzas teóricas (grammar schools) y otros de enseñanza básicamente profesional (secondary modern schools).
