bad behavior
In Greece, when someone annoys the other students, they go to a teacher (usually the one who they trust the most or to a surveillant) and they tell him exactly what happened. Then the teacher goes to the headmaster and they solve the problem there. In Greenland when a person does not behave well or annoys someone, bullies and takes things too far, there is a special classroom for them called family class.

pray
At the 4th Gymnasium school, Preveza in Greece, at 8:20, the students arrive and pray to God and it takes about 1-3 minutes. They believe that it will make their day better. After the prayer, the teachers make announcements that will help them to continue their day. All schools in Greece, both private and public, pray in the morning.
And "Bobby the dog" prays too!

They have many classrooms, so they use all of them for different reasons. For example when they have Music they go to another classroom. They change classrooms only for these subjects : Music, physics, art, gymn.
In this school, there's lots of spiders which in Greenland, there isn't. For some of the greenlanders, its exciting to catch spiders.

tests
Every student in every year takes a test for each subject twice per year, once per term. These test results develop the general grade. The teachers observe the results from the tests then start preparing the students for the final exam at the end of the school year. Some students have difficulties, so instead of writing in the test, they tell the teachers their answers.

Mellemmåltider på skolen
I pauserne spiser eller drikker eleverne for det meste, fordi de først har frokost senere på dagen. De må spise lige hvad de vil og de kan købe det i en lille kiosk i skolegården, men de tager for det meste en madpakke med hjemmefra.
