The original intent of these schools was to educate the young in the Grammar of one or two European Language s. In the British case that meant Latin and sometimes Greek in addition; and in the American case, that of English . However, the meaning of the term has since changed considerably, and grammar schools now provide as broad an education as any other type of school. Grammar schools are also selective, typically taking the top 10% of those from the local catchment area. A test is often taken before being 'accepted' in a school. In the United States, the term has often been used as a synonym for Primary School , although this usage is now at least somewhat in decline. SEE ALSO |
