When I went to school, school started at 07:30 ended at 12:50. We had lunch at home. On two days a week, we had to come back to school in the afternoon for more lessons. There were no school busses, we walked, we cycled, we used public transport. There was no "school teams", there were little extracurricular activities (a choir and a band for the kids who already had Private music lessons). There were no lockers in hallways, we carried all the books we needed for the day in our backpacks.
Germany has now changed the system to be more anglo.
