- Summary:
-
This paper describes the general philosophy, programs and schedules of elementary schools in Leicestershire, England, recognized for emphasis on the individual approach to learning in which each child travels at his own level or pace. The teacher's role is to provide opportunities for children to explore and investigate a wide field of interests. Part of the integrated day is devoted to learning the communication skills, reading, writing, and arithmetic, and the remainder of the day is spent investigating a topic or working on a project. The teaching of reading, writing, and maths is discussed in some detail. British schools also include religious training and make extensive use of the local environment for learning experiences. The paper concludes with a brief discussion of what the concerns of education should be. (MS)
