Education & Reference - 3 February 2007

I am living in Ireland and I have three kids.
Under the Irish system, my youngest child age 10 (11 in september) is in 4th class. - his 6th year in primary school.
My second youngest is in 1st year in secondary school, he is 12 (13 in a few weeks) - he has done eight years of primary school.
And my oldest daughter in 15,(16 in November) she is in 3rd year in secondary school, she is doing a state exam this year - the junior certificate.
My question is, if i was too move my kids to british schools what years would they be in?
And can you give me some general info on british schools?

Glee! the great storm is over!
Four have recovered the land;
Forty gone down together
Into the boiling sand.

Ring, for the scant salvation!5
Toll, for the bonnie souls, –
Neighbor and friend and bridegroom,
Spinning upon the shoals!

How they will tell the shipwreck
When winter shakes the door,10
Till the children ask, “But the forty?
Did they come back no more?”

Then a silence suffuses the story,
And a softness the teller’s eye;
And the children no further question,15
And only the waves reply.

i am canadian, and i am in grade 10.
my whole life, i have planned to become a surgeon, and i know that nothing else will make me happy.

I wil only be applying to Canadian Univeristies. What grades do they look at? Just grade 11? You get your responses from the universities in grade 12 so obviously they cant really look at those. Do they look at your marks only in 11, or in 12? Or do they also look at your marks in grade 10.

I'm trying to be as prepared as i can be,
I will do ANYTHING necessary to get into a good science or health science program for my undergrad, and then I will go even farther to get into med school. this is what i want i just need to know EXACTLY what's important, in HIGHSCHOOL to get there.

I am a British citizen, however, I do not reside in the UK at the moment. Is there anyway I could pay the normal, local fees, instead of the international one? (besides staying the country for 3 years) I'm about to give my O'levels this May.

I'm doing a research paper and I am having a hard time finding critical essays on this book. My teacher said others had done the book and agreed that it was hard to find this information. If you've taught this book or have done a paper on it, please help me find a source. I've looked most places.

Does this mean leading your own self, or would it imply how one would lead his/her organisation. It is an expression that I heard and people gave different meaning and iterpretation.
