MAKING SCHOOLS THAT ARE GOOD FOR KIDS: CREATING A DEMOCRATIC SOCIETY

How can we make a democratic society when our kids are subjected to the authoritarian dictatorship of school?

Isn't it time we thought of something completely new?

This book is about a school that has no classes, no grades, no tests, no marks, and no teachers. Decisions regarding conduct, behaviour, and community relations will be made by democratic assembly in which each person, regardless of age or position, has one vote. Is this a school that is good for kids? Would it be good for society? Obviously I think so or I wouldn't be writing this book. And, also obviously, I believe that schools as they now exist are not good for kids-or anyone else.
