Read the article about an unusual school called Summerhill. Are these sentences true (T) or false (F)?

A school with no rules?

Is it possible to have a school with no rules? Lots of ‘democratic’ or ‘free’ schools around the world say it is. The oldest and best known of these schools is Summerhill School in England. About 75 children between the ages of 5 and 17 go there.

The idea behind Summerhill is that children should be confident enough to make decisions on their own. The students must decide which subjects they’ll study but they don’t have to go to class if they don’t want to. They can hang out in the art room or garden instead. They don’t have to do exams either but most students take some exams before they leave school.

Like students in most other schools, students at Summerhill do maths, English, science etc. What’s different is that they have to choose other kinds of activities and projects. Here the students suggest the projects and not the teachers. Suggestions have included: afternoon walks, magic shows and gardening.

Teachers do not give marks at the end of the year and the school does not send reports to families. If a parent wants a report on their child, first the child has to say that it’s OK for the teacher to write one.

1. No other ‘free’ school in the world is as famous as Summerhill.
