		Many of the earlier public schools in the United States were one-room schools where a single teacher taught seven grades of boys and girls in the same classroom.
		In both, a school may also be a partially autonomous or indeed entirely separate institution, not necessarily a part of a system of compulsory public education at all, dedicated to learning within one particular field, such as a school of economics (e.g.

		For those schooled where academic achievement was a competitive sport, University School’s non-competitive progress assessment methods may, at first, seem lacking adequate assessment of progress, identifiable achievement standards, or clear evidence of accountability on the part of teachers.

		A public school, in common British and Irish usage, is a school that charges fees and is financed by bodies other than the state, commonly as a private charitable trust.

		In British usage, a government-run school (which would be called a 'public school' in other areas, such as the United States) is called a state school.

		It is unlikely that you will be able to write a truly critical assessment of the literature until you have a good grasp of the subject, usually at some point near the end of your thesis.
		A literature review gives an overview of the field of inquiry: what has already been said on the topic, who the key writers are, what the prevailing theories and hypotheses are, what questions are being asked, and what methodologies and methods are appropriate and useful.
		Each paragraph (or section if it is a long thesis) of the literature review should classify and evaluate the themes of the texts that are relevant to your thesis; each paragraph or section of your review should deal with a different aspect of the literature.
