Ezzat I would use another preposition for school.
I would say "at primary school" if you speak about a school in general or "at the primary school" if you mean the exact one (e.g. the school you studied at before, the school where your brother is studying, etc.).

Correction is correct. because you are not speaking about a particular school. It's just a school to everybody but you.
