Alternatives to School

You will have seen some different sorts of schools and different ideas about the best way to educate children from the film clips and websites you were directed to.
Post a comment below about what you have seen and what you think about it.
Does home schooling appeal to you?  What about the Sands School method of education?  Would you like that level of freedom?  Do you think it would work for every student over the whole country?

Once you have posted your idea - reply to someone else's post that you do not agree with and begin a discussion.
