[b]Classes at the progressive schools are sometimes (or mostly) child-led. [/b]While children can get deep into topics they are interested about, this method can leave gaps in the curriculum where some areas are untouched. Time and coverage of each topic is not as structured as in traditional schools, where the teacher leads the class and time-spent / depth of learning is determined by the curriculum/teacher.[/quote]

Why would anyone choose this for a child? I cannot imagine anyone thinking this is a good idea, for any type of learner.
