The end of failure in education

According to school officials, students who attend the school will not be graded, nor will they be tested or separated into classrooms. There will be no mandated curriculum. Instead students will engage in “self-directed learning,” and will vote on what they want to do each day.

There will also be no summer vacations. Students must only attend the state-required 180 days and 900 hours of learning time – but that is just about the only rule at the school.

“There is no real teaching… all the learning comes from the intrinsic motivation of the children,” said Newman.
