| Summary: | A significant part of the work at Přírodní škola Secondary School (Prague, Czech Republic) takes place out of the classroom, through interdisciplinary and exploratory projects, artwork, and voluntary activities. Pupils are encouraged to use their skills and abilities not only for their own benefit, but in service of others. They are also required to present their views and opinions publicly, through which they learn to lead discussions and become used to public performance. The school has a relatively strict policy regarding the use of smart devices during school hours, and places a strong emphasis on the mental wellbeing of all participants. While these principles contribute meaningfully to addressing the challenges of the Anthropocene, the school’s demanding curriculum and intensive schedule make it difficult to transfer some of its practices to other contexts. |
