I think a perfect school is a place where we spend much time‚ enjoying school life‚ friendship and getting knowledge. However some things could be changed in the school I am studying now. The lessons should be shorter‚ and the breaks – longer. Students should only study the subjects they really enjoy. That s why Information technologies and Physical Education should be removed.
