What do you call a school with no tests, no grades, no classes, and no teachers? Students of the Met School and their parents think it to be the best school in the world.

The school is in Rhode Island, the USA. Dennis Littky opened it in 1996. He wasfiredfrom two other schools, because many parents of the school students were unhappy with his unusual ideas. The Met School gives Littky a great place to try out his new ideas. The school takes poor kids who are failing at school. Nearly everybody has already given up these students and their parents want to try anything.

"The word that most kids use when they talk about high school is 'boring', " says Littky, "But no one would say the Met was boring. " Advisors (not teachers) work with small groups of students for four years. Students spend almost half of their school time learning real-life skills, such as working for business, spending time with government people, and helping teach younger children. Instead of tests, the students give shows about their work outside school.

In fact, students work harder here than in other schools. All the students from the Met graduate and can choose to go to a good university. Now, Bill Gates is starting schools like this one around the USA.

    With the Chinese language growing in popularity, the UK government plans to invest 10 million pounds to help more kids learn Chinese. Do you think it is necessary for UK pupils to learn Chinese?

Seneca (Canada)

    I studied French for 2 years in high school, and German for 4 years in college and got good marks. I studied Chinese for about 4 months before moving to China. Any language, if you don't use it, it will be easy to lose. I've forgotten the French I learned except for a few phrases. I speak Chinese every day. My writing, reading and listening are quite good, but far fromfluent. I think nowadays, it's almost necessary to learn Chinese.

Tony (the UK)

    Learning any language can be valuable, but it is not suitable for everyone. Chinese is a difficult language to learn, and teachers in the UK are not good at teaching foreign languages. However, China is a big and developing market for English business people. For them, Chinese is worth learning.

Bill (the US)

    I don't think Chinese will become as widely spoken throughout the world as English. To learn Chinese, you have to devote yourself to learning how to write and read it It's too difficult to learn. But in the future Chinese will become more popular, and that is a good thing.
