My School, Our World: Incredible and Unusual Schools Around the World Reviews

This is a fascinating insight into a multitude of different schools. * Parents In Touch *
Uplifting and informative, ideal material for creative curriculum projects, with some leisure appeal too. A very valuable book. * Peters Gazette *
Am extremely interesting book. A clearly written, but fascinating introduction to comparative education, that illustrates why education is, as the UN say, a basic human right. * English 4-11 *
