[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The school should be able to give you a plain language explanation of their methods, how they are implemented, and what the intended outcomes are. If they can't, that's definitely a red flag. Also, "child-led" is not an excuse for giant gaping holes in the curriculum. The teacher is supposed to awaken the child's interests, not just blow off whatever doesn't happen to appeal. I have nothing against progressive schooling in principle, [b]it's just that some teachers are more skilled than others so you have to.choose carefully. [/b]That's the bottom line IMO. [/quote] The bolded is true everywhere. And all schools are going to have some excellent teachers, some not good teachers, and some in the middle.[/quote]
