No homework?
No tests?
Played all day?
Made the rules in the school?

Sounds strange, right?
At Sudbury schools, kids grow up with no grades, no homework, and no teachers telling them what to do.

They play.
They explore.
They follow their own curiosity.
But does it work?
We invite you to meet real Sudbury graduates and hear what happened next...
