Comprehensive school

A comprehensive school is a type of public school that accepts students of all abilities, backgrounds, and academic performance levels within a community. Unlike selective schools that admit students based on exams or special talents, comprehensive schools aim to provide equality of opportunity by offering a broad curriculum to everyone. They focus on inclusive education, supporting diverse student needs, and encouraging personal development. These schools promote social integration and prepare students for various paths in life, whether academic, vocational, or work-related, fostering a supportive environment where all learners can thrive.
