A.S. Neill's Summerhill School, a co-educational boarding school in Suffolk, England, is the original alternative 'free' school. Founded in 1921, it continues to be an influential model for progressive, democratic education around the world.

Imagine a school...

- Where kids have freedom to be themselves...

- Where success is not defined by academic achievement but by the child's own definition of success...

- Where the whole school deals democratically with issues, with each individual having an equal right to be heard...

- Where you can play all day if you want to...

- And there is time and space to sit and dream...

...could there be such a self-actualizing school?
