In government schools in here we usually have like pre-nursery, nursery, then kindergarten to class 4 in some schools. It was my case. I started my high school in class 5 and we also had sections. then after 10th class we have to choose a stream we want to study like science, arts or commerce, which is dependent on the grades we get from the board exams. so I changed my school because they did not have science course and completed my 11th and 12th there with science. and then I again had to give another board exam to get into college with the marks. then 3 years Bachelors, and then took a gap year and now doing masters. uff alot of studying. i am very happy to see so much similarities between you and me.❤

We would also have our lunches made by the older women and it was always traditional food that would be served in bowls (with roosters painted on them) alongside mismatched cutlery.

Always a joy to watch your charming videos, my favorite 007 ;-) You brought back my old memories of the 70s/80s. I emigrated to Switzerland when I was 7, so I have experienced both Swiss schools and (South) Italian kindergarten/first elementary classes. While my Italian experiences tend to be more like yours, Swiss schools have no religious, political, or patriotic signs at all (also no uniforms), the ambiance is usually "friendly" and child-oriented, no strict "old-school" discipline, the schools are usually open, in good shape, not fenced, whatsoever, well-equipped and clean. Back then, we volunteered a lot (e.g. in nursing homes), had many social events, and got taught to respect animals and nature (we were often outside, visited zoos, etc). All in all, it was a good time, except perhaps for the occasional bully and not-that-loved teacher, as everywhere, lol. I'm sure you would've loved it, too. Thanks again for the insights, and let's hope, things get better, soon. Children deserve a joyful and peaceful childhood, wherever they live, and whoever they are. Stay safe!

I love me Agent Nesty. Always interesting, clever and informative! I am a grandpa in my sixties, so things have change a little here in the states. I went to Elementary School (K to 6), then a Junior High (now called Middle School) (7-9), and then High School (10-12). I grew up in Long Beach California (right below Los Angeles) and so it was a newer area and our schools were maybe just 10 years old, so things were pretty new. Because of the change in schools, I maybe ended up with 1/4 of those that I started with. I don't think there was all that much different. Language and some subject matters of course, and I grew up during the Cold War when we would practice "Drop and Cover" in case of nuclear war (like hiding under a small wooden desk is going to protect you :)) I remember my whole class writing to President Kennedy and we got a letter back with a picture we put in our class room. Sports. It seems pretty much the same.

[@pamelajaye]

Did you have portable classrooms or have your school be renovated to be larger while you were in school? We had that in junior high and in high school because of being baby boomers although I think I am a few years younger than you. President Kennedy died when I was four and I don't remember it. Our Junior high School didn't have grade 9 but I don't think it was uncommon. My mother's junior high school may have had grade 9. But in her city there was more than one junior high school also. We only had one. Since it was New England a couple of our schools were so old that in 6th grade we had to go to one of the old schools - this probably also had to do with being a baby boomer or the fact that we got kindergarten which we didn't have when I started in the suburbs - and two of our elementary schools went to this one school for 6th grade. It was right across the street from my house. Unfortunately the cafeteria was no good so they put us in a school bus and sent us back to our old school. Yes we drove right past my house. I couldn't go home. I had to get on the school bus and ride past my house. Kind of stupid. And also by the time I got to school we didn't do duck and cover and I didn't hear about it until I was watching Quantum Leap, I think. And also there was something else like that, oh right we didn't have prayer in school. We had a moment of silence but I don't think I realized that that was a substitute until I was like 40 years old or more. I just didn't really think about it. And when we got to high school I think we only said the pledge of allegiance once a week by then. Also we went to homeroom in the dark one year at least because of something to do with daylight savings time and the energy crisis. I forgot all about this until someone reminded me. It was in Massachusetts. In Ohio they ran out of oil or whatever to heat the schools so they stayed home and watched school on television. In 1977. That was fascinating to hear. I don't know why they didn't happen more often.

It seems like such a wholesome environment, honestly! I went to a private school in elementary here in the US, and it was similar in many ways. Having 1st-8th grade together was nice, but once we hit 6th grade we weren't allowed to play with the younger kids on the good part of the playground anymore. I wasn't a kid who really got in trouble much, but I did, one time, get sent out to sit by the door and it was humiliating!

Do think the award ceremony is important it inspires pride, self confidence and unity too which is very important now today and we don't have that here. I attended a very strict first school as it was a Christian school but then secondary school was a free-for-all 😅 a lot of noise and fighting amongst the boys with a focus on industry and sports, although I preferred history and languages. Both college and university though and its not much different.

Omg, I accidentally found your video and I found a lot of similarities between schools in Vietnam and Russia. Yes, we do have a lot of mandatory rules here. Especially about the checking homework thing. In Vietnam, we do have GPA and yes there is a sort of grade we must obtain that's called: " Kiểm tra miệng". You can understand it means an activity that the teachers will randomly pick up a student or more if they have enough time and check if they learn the lesson or not by telling everything from the notebook. It was and always has become an unforgettable memory for all of us. Furthermore, we also do have rules for uniforms. I remember that when I went to high school there are some rules for uniforms such as the shirt must always be crated, and Girls must wear " Áo dài" on Monday, I actually live in the central part of Vietnam so girls only have to wear " áo dài" for only Mondays. But schools that are located in the Southern part must wear it for the whole week. We don't even have room for storage of the individual belongings. We just simply put all of them into the drawers of the desk but in Elementary school and Secondary school the desk will have a hanger beside the desk to hang up the stuff. There are more stuff but I think I should stop here. Thank you for the video!

I enjoyed your description of Last Bell. I attended one such ceremony in 2005 as a foreign guest, and I was impressed by the whole event. It was truly a joyful celebration that connected the generations. You might mention that the first year girls and graduating girls wear the same uniform for Last Bell. This isn't how they normally dress, but it's a fun bit of tradition that illustrates how far they have progressed in life. I imagine First Bell has the same appeal, though I have not seen one. First Bell was also the backdrop for the 2004 Beslan school hostage crisis, something many Americans might not understand. Terrorists turned a joyful celebration in to a horrible nightmare with over 1000 hostages taken and 186 children murdered.

2:05 Lockers in US schools are a weird and sometimes contentious issue. Many schools don't have enough lockers for all students, so they can be shared with a random other student, leading to conflicts and accusations of stealing. If there are enough lockers, then they're often so far away from one's classes that it's quite inconvenient to reach them between classes because one has to run over to another building and back within 6 minutes. It's usually doable but it's unpleasant enough to avoid when you can. I had a locker for all six years from 7th and 12th grade but hardly ever used it. Far easier to just carry 20-30 pounds (about 10-15 kg) of stuff everywhere. Smaller students frequently have backpacks quite similar to carry-on airplane luggage, with the wheels and extensible handles. I'm tall enough that I have to bend over to reach the handle even at maximum extension, so I just always had the largest regular backpack available and carried my entire courseload worth of materials.

We had checking homeworks in start of lessons, checking knowledge of previous lessons, heavy bags (with books for lessons and boots for sport lessons). In each class we had a catholic cross and state emblem. Most of the school buildings are made in Polish People's Republic in 60's and 70's, but some of them are elder or younger (my primary school looks like school from 60's or 70's but it's younger).

Hi, I'm from Peru and let me tell you that I see many differences and similarities. Some schools don't have lockers, it's just you, your backpack and your desk. Then, in breaks and lunch, you bring your own food and if you forgot you can buy, there are like mini stores inside schools. I remember I used to have two breaks of 15 minutes each and one lunch of 45 minutes. About beign discipline, it will depend on the teacher, cause I recall in some classes we were louder and in others don't. I think those are the differences. Now about the similarities, we also take all the course, we cannot choose. Kindergarden, Elementary school and high school are together in just one place as well. We also have mornings meetings, in my case I had them every Monday and Frdiay. Uniforms are mandatory and for girls you are forced to have your hair in a bum (just in my school).

I'm quite a bit older than you, but going to school in America in the 70s, we had lockers, we didn't wear uniforms, and we didn't get to choose our classes either until 7th grade. Even then, some subjects were required, like math and science, but you could also begin taking other classes that you might find interesting, like foreign languages, drama, etc. We sometimes had posters with pictures of all the presidents on them, but I don't remember ever having a picture of Nixon or Ford or Carter or Reagan hanging in the classroom, nor did we have pictures of the mayor (city leader) or governor (state leader), but we said the pledge of allegiance each morning, where we'd stand, place our hand over our hearts, face the American flag, and say "I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all." Students were allowed to step out into the hall during that time if their religious beliefs prohibited it or their parents had asked that their children be exempt from it. My class (generally around 30 students) never had more than a couple of students skip saying the pledge of allegiance. They don't do it in the schools anymore, at least in my city. We went to school for kindergarten, which was a half-day divided between two groups of children: the morning class, and the afternoon class (I went in the morning and went home for the day around lunchtime), and then 12 more years of school that lasted the entire day. For me, in my city, it was divided between elementary school (kindergarten through 6th grade), junior high (grades 7-9) and then high school (grades 10-12). I started kindergarten when I was 4 and graduated when I was 18. Most schools in America at that time structured the grades a little differently, with elementary school being kindergarten through 5th grade, middle school being grades 6-8, and high school for grades 9-12, which is how my city does it now, too.

I’m familiar with the American Oath of Allegiance, even though I’m Canadian. I thought saying it at the start of the day was still mandatory for all students in all American schools.
