The School That Turned Chinese. Episode 3

Description

In a unique experiment, five teachers from China take over the education of 50 teenagers in a Hampshire school to see whether the high-ranking Chinese education system can teach Britain a lesson. Will the harsh regime of long days and strict discipline produce superior students? Or will the clash of two cultures create chaos in the classroom? After four weeks, the Chinese and British systems will go head to head with the whole year group taking exams to see which teaching style gets the best results. In the final episode, it is exam week at the Chinese School. After discipline problems, the Chinese teachers are playing catch up against their British counterparts. Can their kids knuckle down and show benefits from the Chinese approach? And which system will triumph, the Chinese or the British?
