Summerhill Question

Summerhill was a community which claimed to take responsibility for itself. Problems were discussed and resolved through openness, democracy and social action.

In your opinion, does you think that Summerhill is suitable for all children – or do some need more structure?


"The function of a child is to live his own life- not the life that his anxious parents think he should live, nor the life according to the purpose of the educator who thinks he knows best" - A.S. Neill
