Teachers are half of free school inquiries

Most of the teachers in United Kingdom said that they were interested in starting a “free school”. Education secretary Michael Gove explained that some schools will cause chaos in some cases. He also emphasized that the “free schools” are educated under level. Mainly the teachers want these “free schools” to fill the gap between rich children and poor children. These kinds of schools are similar in Sweden and the United States of America and it works successfully. If the government is going to build a ‘free school’, the first one will be opened in September 2011 in the United Kingdom.

I think teachers have a good idea to propose a “free school” for poor and even rich children. It is better that the gap between poor and rich is minimal. The government can see the positive development among the free schools in Sweden and the United States of America. Michael Gove has a good reason if he does not agree about building free schools because he is afraid that chaos will be caused in some cases. It is not easy to build a school without any disorder, therefore the government should think carefully if they want a fresh new school. On the other hand, I think that the teachers should always put their students in first place.
