When the British invaded the harbour town in 1744[verification needed], the town’s architectural buildings were destroyed[verification needed]. Subsequently, new structures were built in the town around the harbour area[verification needed] and the Swedes had also further added to the architectural beauty of the town in 1785 with more buildings, when they had occupied the town. Earlier to their occupation, the port was known as "Carénage". The Swedes renamed it as Gustavia in honour of their king Gustav III. It was then their prime trading center.

Comprehensive_school

A comprehensive school is a state school that does not select its intake on the basis of academic achievement or aptitude. This is in contrast to the selective school system, where admission is restricted on the basis of selection criteria. The term is commonly used in relation to England and Wales, where comprehensive schools were introduced on an experimental basis in the 1940s and became more widespread from 1965. About 90% of British secondary school pupils now attend comprehensive schools. They correspond broadly to the public high school in the United States and Canada and to the German Gesamtschule.[citation needed]

Question: What kind of school does not base its admissions on academic merit?
Answer: comprehensive school

Question: What kind of school system uses academic success to judge admissions?
Answer: selective school system

Question: What countries used comprehensive schools extensively?
Answer: England and Wales

Question: How many secondary school students attend comprehensive schools in England?
Answer: 90%

Question: What is the German analogue of the comprehensive school?

Comprehensive_school

Comprehensive schools are primarily about providing an entitlement curriculum to all children, without selection whether due to financial considerations or attainment. A consequence of that is a wider ranging curriculum, including practical subjects such as design and technology and vocational learning, which were less common or non-existent in grammar schools. Providing post-16 education cost-effectively becomes more challenging for smaller comprehensive schools, because of the number of courses needed to cover a broader curriculum with comparatively fewer students. This is why schools have tended to get larger and also why many local authorities have organised secondary education into 11–16 schools, with the post-16 provision provided by Sixth Form colleges and Further Education Colleges. Comprehensive schools do not select their intake on the basis of academic achievement or aptitude, but there are demographic reasons why the attainment profiles of different schools vary considerably. In addition, government initiatives such as the City Technology Colleges and Specialist schools programmes have made the comprehensive ideal less certain.

Question: What are some areas of learning in comprehensive schools that were not found often in grammar schools?
Answer: design and technology and vocational learning

Question: What two kinds of schools were developed in response to the costs of post-16 comprehensive school education?
Answer: Sixth Form colleges and Further Education Colleges

Question: Which types of school projects have called the model of comprehensive schools into question?
Answer: City Technology Colleges and Specialist schools programmes
