Top most unusual schools around the world


Top most unusual schools around the world

1. Ørestad Gymnasium. Copenhagen, Denmark. The school in a cube


This school is in fact a giant classroom where 358 high school students learn in an expansive glass cube. By encouraging students to collaborate in wide-open settings, the school hopes kids will be equipped to think flexibly on diverse topics later in life. Open space is equipped with spacious "drums" for a more relaxed learning environment. Kids break off into groups and form makeshift classrooms, sometimes with teachers to guide them.

2. The Boat Schools. Bangladesh



Twice a year, Bangladesh experiences floods which leave millions of its citizens without access to clean water, electricity, and other necessities. It becomes difficult for children to attend schools and for those schools to keep their doors open. To combat the challenges caused by the annual floods, a nonprofit organization called Shidhulai Swanirvar Sangstha came up with a great solution - they built houses, health care centers, and schools that float.

Each of these schools is solar powered and equipped with a laptop computer, Internet access, and a small library. The boat schools are a school and school bus hybrid. Whenever there’s a flood and every other service is closed for business, the floating schools are still operational. They pick their students up from docks and riversides, then dock somewhere so that class can begin. After the lessons are through, the boat schools return the students to their homes and another group of students is picked up.

3. Green School. Bali, Indonesia


It is no doubt one of the greenest schools in the world. It looks more like a resort than an actual school. This spacious bamboo campus includes classrooms, a gym, faculty housing, offices and cafes, and everything is powered by clean energy sources such as hydro-powered vortex generator and solar panels.

4. Carpe Diem Schools. Aiken, Ohio


The Carpe Diem school look more like an office building than a classroom. Inside the main room ( known as the Learning center ) there are 300 cubicles - one for each student. These cubes house a computer that guides the student through his or her education.

Since every student is diffrent - school offers personalised education.  If students have trouble with their online learning, they can turn to instructors for help.

5. Santa Claus School. Michigan, USA


Established in 1937, this is the Princeton of Santa Claus schools and is dedicated to upholding the traditions, image and history of Saint Nick. Students will learn Santa dress code, correct Santa etiquette, and how to safely interact with live reindeers.

6. Abo Elementary School. New Mexico, USA



Abo Elementary School takes pride in being the first underground school in the United States. It was built during Cold War. The school is completely underground. A playground was built on its roof. The school has three different entrances, each of which is protected by an 800-kilogram steel blast door. It’s also equipped with decontamination showers. In its day, it had a morgue, a generator, a well, its own ventilation system, and stockpiles of food and medication. Despite all of this, many of its students had no idea that they attended elementary school in a bomb shelter.

Single-sex education

A little bit of history Single-sex education was traditional and dominating form of education till 19th century. Almost all schools and universities were single sex, which in almost all cases meant – men’s schools. This situation started to change because of two reasons: emancipation of women (fight for equality) and introduction of massive education. The first mixed-sex boarding school in UK was formed in 1818, it was Scottish Dollar Academy, and in 1878 the first university- University College London, allowed women  to enter on equal terms with men. What is interesting, the first Cambridge collage, which admit men and women was founded only on  1964. Pros and cons The topic of single-sex education is quite controversial. Like always there are pros and cons, some of them are quite irrational, other have a scientific background. The most popular arguments for single-sex education: 1. Boys and girls are learning in the different way, so they need differ...

Different Types of Schooling

Different Types of Schooling Good education starts with the type of schooling the child is exposed to and its quality . Also taken into account is the preference of the child's parents. Different parents look for different things in their child's education: some want socialization while others are looking for small class size.  Following is a brief description of the different types of schools on today's educational landscape. Public Schools Public schools get their financing from local, state and federal government funds.   They also  were started to ensure equal educational opportunity.  There is much criticism about the public school system - it's poor quality, low teacher standards, etc. But it should be noted that without public education many children would have no chances to education at all.  Private Schools Private schools have long been associated with better quality education . These schools select from a pool of students who ap...
