I again, do not know the St. Albans, (I would like to visit it) but in Madrid, at least, the nuns, were divided in two categories: The Mothers, (as Mother Superior etc.) who had a University degree each, and taught in the school to \"O\" and \"A levels, in all subjects, so we only had to take examinations outside to the Institutes allocated by the Government, when we had to take the Batchelor Exams, like all other colleges or schools.. In my later years we could also choose Book keeping, once we had finished the \"O\" levels. In Spain the subjects and corresponding books were selected by the government, so we had no choice of subjects, we all had to study first two years, Latin, Biology, including not only the human body, bones, digestive track muscles, etc, but also the entire classifications of vertebrates, mammals, reptiles etc., cold blooded animals, Birds, invertebrates, insects, and all their classifications, maths, Geography, History including From Cristopher Colombus, and all the Conqistadors in South America, The Incas, etc. Grammar, French, Music, P.E., Religion, etc. The following two years Biology changed to: Physics and Chemistry, Grammer changed to Literature, not only Spanish, but main works and authors from other Countries, like Victor Hugo, for France, Shakespeare, Charles Dickens Lord Byron etc, for England, and I can not remember the others.
