IS SUMMERHILL AN IDEAL SCHOOL ?
In Modern life if we want to be a successful, don’t run behind success, but try your best that success stand behind you. Summerhill school is an ideal school because its provide freedom and a stress-free environment for students. Students study in their natural form and also its helps to develop self–motivation.
Summerhill School provides choice and opportunities that allow students to explore new things and new ideas. Due to a non – compulsory attendance of lessons, student’s enjoy learning and their prejudiced against teacher’s. Student’s will develop and show more respect for tutors and its make more responsible adults. However, giving freedom is not always finomalous because it has two sides, Student may be taught creativity and self–regulation in the atmosphere of Summerhill school, but the people need to compare the student’s to another conditions. These are deficiency in the education and it is not enough protection by the adult was taught letting the children unsupervised. Students may not cover essential subjects in their learning. All students should have basic knowledge in maths, science, English, history and real world. The Summerhill School allow children to be completely free to play as much as they like creative and imaginative play is an essential part of childhood and development.
The success is not defined by academic achievement of Summerhill School, but by the child’s own definition of success. I hold that the aim of life is to find happiness. In Summerhill School, everyone has equal rights. Every student can vote, they can think for themselves.

In conclusion Summerhill is a rare school in the world where the student have freedom of learning and less of stress. The key to life is also happiness and freedom. If success isn’t around you it can be the darkest hour. Summerhill School founder Mr.AS Neill himself described his vision, saying: “ I would rather Summerhill produced a happy street cleaner than a

    The schools are seen in contrasting close-ups. At Ridge, children like Bobby are learning elementary skills that may equip them to find jobs at places like McDonald's or a grocery store when the time comes. At Sparks the attempt is made, with the help of specialist, to bring the new pupil as close as he can come to the level of normal children of his age. I particularly find plenty of disagreements among parents and teachers about which children are being better served.…

    Respected Mr. Robertson and Mr. Welsh, I aim to convey my genuine intent in representing Shawnigan Lake School as a prefect. I love Shawnigan, I realized this as a ten-year-old touring for the first time with my mother.

    I can blame no one but myself for my need to attend summer school for this year. However: I would like to blame it on my Spanish teacher, my mother, my siblings, my dog ate the homework, anyone but Christopher L. Martin. Summer school was not in my game plan the first day of school last year. I entered my school, Lake Catholic HS, with the calm surety and purpose of a bona-fide tenth grader, I’ve been here before. My anxiety level was low but my expectations for the future year were high. There are times when I think that I remain overwhelmed in some way by the enormity of the campus; the numerous classrooms, by the tough rules that are actually enforced. Transitioning from a small Catholic parish school boasting an 8th grade graduating class of 34 students to a large campus of hundreds of students present a challenge to “fit-in” that I had never experienced.…

    In the Essay My Pedagogic Creed the author John Dewey lets us know that learning begins at birth and from one person being born in the world, society is getting educated from that. He says that true education is the result of a child's experiences and what his environment demand of him.With education one can emerge from their original narrowness and find that they belong to a particular group. In Summerhill, the whole school was based on this idea of freedom. Attending classes was optional, students had a say in what the school did and teachers were not allowed to yell at students. Sounds good right?…

    As the principal of James S. Russell Middle School, my philosophy is simple. I believe that if we invest in our students and expand upon their previous knowledge, we can explore uncharted territory. By “thinking outside of the box" and striving to teach the whole child, we are destined to intersect with success. My belief is that if I continue to successfully motivate the RMS student, faculty, and staff to do their very best and extend their personal limits, the success for our division will be exhibited…

    I Just Wanna Be Average

    Mike Rose’s “I Just Wanna Be Average” essay makes me mad, but, at the same time, it makes me realize how lucky I am. I had never been in a special program, so I never thought about the students who were in those programs. Actually, my school had the kind of vocational track that the essay introduced, but I didn’t care about them because I wasn’t part of the track. Therefore, I really didn’t know that the students who were in that kind of special programs could be lost their identity due to poor instruction and suffered from lacking of motivation. Reading this essay, I double-checked that education needs the harmony of students, teachers, and its system. Temporarily, I thought, if there were more teachers who thought like Mr.MacFarland in reality, students would embrace learning because Mr.MacFarland truly knows how to speak to a student.…
