A school is a place where children go to be educated.
The idea
Count institutions with a school, two schools. Use a school near the station to describe location and a teacher at a school to describe a workplace.
Examples
- The school is near the station.
- Two schools are in this town.
- The teacher works at a school.
- The child walks to school.
- We visited the school yesterday.
- The new school has a library.
