crime and justice

we have learned about  crime and justice in last lesson.from my personality,i have intreseting in community justice.hence i will shows some information about this topic.

Community justice:

The aim of community justice is to improve local quality of life. It lets people get involved in making their area a better place to live in by helping to reduce anti-social behaviour like graffitiing, vandalism and drug dealing.

Community justice in your community

Community justice is also about making sure that people who are affected by bad behaviour and crime have a say in how things are sorted out in their community. This means getting involved in the ‘justice process’ – like helping courts and the police focus on the crimes that local residents say are causing them the most problems.
Local people in the community can come up with ideas on how to reduce crime - for example, by drawing attention to a local street that may be particularly bad for drug-dealing.

welfare

In the uk,a welfare state is a concept of government where the state plays the primary role in the protection and promotion of the economic and social well-being of its citizens. It is based on the principles of equality of opportunity, equitable distribution of wealth, and public responsibility for those unable to avail themselves of the minimal provisions for a good life. The general term may cover a variety of forms of economic and social organization.
There are two main interpretations of the idea of a welfare state:

A model in which the state assumes primary responsibility for the welfare of its citizens. This responsibility in theory ought to be comprehensive, because all aspects of welfare are considered and universally applied to citizens as a "right".
Welfare state can also mean the creation of a "social safety net" of minimum standards of varying forms of welfare.

In my own country,people almost don't have good welfare.such as people have to pay for when themselves go to hospital.and also have to pay tuition for children go to shcool.

NEWSPAPERS

broadsheets  is  a large piece of paper printed on one side only with information; a broadside or  a newspaper with a large format regarded as more serious and less sensationalist than tabloids .
A tabloid is an industry term for a smaller newspaper format per spread; to a weekly or semi-weekly alternative newspaper that focuses on local-interest stories and entertainment, often distributed free of charge (often in a smaller, tabloid-sized newspaper format); or to a newspaper that tends to sensationalize and emphasize or exaggerate sensational crime stories, gossip columns repeating scandalous and innuendos about the deeply personal lives of celebrities and sports stars, and other so-called "junk food news" or junk mail (often in a smaller, tabloid-sized newspaper format). As the term "tabloid" has become synonymous with down-market newspapers in some areas, some small-format papers which claim a higher standard of journalism refer to themselves as "compact" newspapers instead.
I prefer to read tabloid ,because it is more interesting than broadsheet.

EDUCATION

Higher education in England and Wales include:
 Bachelor Degree :UK general academic year undergraduate degree, but some special professional requirements of the University of Reading for four years or more, such as medicine. In the British eyes, the medical and the legal profession is the most difficult and most difficult time obtaining a professional. (These two disciplines have in common a "human life"). Route into the UK a number of undergraduate, the most common are relying on three A-Level results into the undergraduate. If you have achieved GNVQ Advanced Diploma, it is also eligible to apply for most university undergraduate courses. However, the best British universities such as Oxford, Cambridge and the LSE is generally not get just by GNVQ results, in the A-Level students achieved outstanding results in only a few can be admitted through an interview. Chinese universities have made in school diploma or undergraduate students through a specially designed bridging courses (Access To Higher Education Programme or the Higher Education Foundation Course) to reach into the UK undergraduate degree level. Institutions such courses in the UK There are many titles are different, but similar content.

 Master Degree:UK postgraduate courses only one year, which China and the U.S. are different. During the year, mainly students write essays and do research, less teaching, so students from other countries if not in the UK after a period of learning or language, customs, however, is very difficult to accomplish this year Course of. Some College graduate specially designed a preparatory course (Pre-master Programme), to help students to successfully enter graduate programs and successfully obtained a degree. Requirements into the graduate program has a bachelor's degree, if there is a period of relevant work experience is also very helpful.

 HND-Higher National Diploma: HND-Higher National Diploma is a useful diploma. It is the vocational education system in the highest stage, the general school system for two years. HND Diploma in theory, equivalent to China, but the classification is more detailed, more professional. HND requirements have been completed into the A-Level or GNVQ-Advanced course, if China's high school students in some aspects (such as computers) have special expertise and demonstrated very good language skills, then, may also go directly to HND, but reads will be very hard. HND graduates, if achieved good results, you can choose to directly enter the third year undergraduate course, usually the appropriate school or inter-school professional. That, plus a year to a bachelor degree.

The Senedd is completely transparent at the public level and sits on a slate plinth which steps upwards from the waterfront and houses the private spaces of the building. A lightweight, gently undulating roof shelters both internal and external spaces and is drawn down to form a funnel-like enclosure over the Siambr.
