STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS La constitución estadounidense estipula que el presidente debe mantener informado al Congreso sobre el estado de la nación.

STATE SCHOOLS En el Reino Unido hay dos tipos principales de centros públicos de educación secundaria: las “comprehensive schools” y las “grammar schools”. Las primeras fueron introducidas en 1965 por los laboristas, con el fin de democratizar la enseñanza y garantizar la igualdad de oportunidades para todos los estudiantes, cualesquiera que fueran los ingresos de sus padres y su origen social. Hoy en día, el 90% de los alumnos de secundaria asisten a ellas. La calidad de la enseñanza varía enormemente según los centros y es bastante normal que ciertas familias se muden a una zona que tenga una buena escuela. Las “grammar schools”, a las que asisten menos del 5% de los estudiantes, imparten una educación más tradicional y se centran en preparar a los alumnos que tienen previsto continuar sus estudios. Para acceder ellas, los alumnos tienen que hacer un examen a los 11 años.
