ENGLAND

The climate of England tempered by the seas surroundin
g the island, and especially for the warm Gulf Stream, is relatively mild for the latitude of the country, the same as Newfoundland in Canada; rarely recorded temperatures of heat or cold extreme.

England has a variety of soil types, ranging from thin and often
acidic upland, as those present in the Peninos and heathland in the southwestern peninsula, the rich marl of East Anglia. In the past, England, as most of the island of Great Britain, was densely wooded, mostly by oaks and beech in the lowlands and pines and poplars in mountainous areas. Forests are at present only 7% of the total area.

The main constituent native mammals several species of deer, foxes, hares, ponies, otters, hedgehogs, red squirrels and badgers. The birds are the most common sta
rling, the sparrow and blackbirds. England also gave shelter to hundreds of species of migratory summer and winter to be one of the major flyways. Migratory birds of summer are the most frequent swallow, vencejo and cuckoo. In winter, wetlands, lakes and reservoirs attract many birds waders, ducks and geese.

In England and Wales attendance at school is compulsory between 5 and 16 years. More than 90% of primary schools and secondary schools are funded in whole by public funds.
