Jewish life and traditions

This requires too much to post just on Wiki, but to summarize, students, at least in the US, learn the same basic academics that students in public schools do, in addition to study of Jewish law, living a Jewish life (not entirely the same things), the Torah and Tamudic bases for Jewish law, the history of Jewish thought, including the commentary of the great sages (more for boys than girls). Girls will especially learn things like how to dress according to tsnius, keep a kosher kitchen, and keep Shabbes in the home. Some schools have Hebrew language classes. They also, in the US, will study US civics, the constitution, and other things like that in order to function as US citizens.

Can I convert to Orthodox Judaism in the UK?

Yes. Consult your local Orthodox rabbi. That rabbi will point you to an Orthodox rabbi who works with a beth din (Jewish court, consisting of 3 judges) that will supervise the conversion. Note that Orthodox conversion (like all conversions to Judaism under any branch of Judaism) is not simple. It requires on the order of a year of serious study, plus regular participation in Jewish services and, as you learn what you are getting into, increasing adherence to Jewish law and tradition. Furthermore, Jewish tradition requires that the potential convert be discouraged from conversion because it exposes you to the wrath of antisemites and because you don't need to be Jewish to be seen as righteous.
