Dual School is totally radical in a way that completely makes sense. Students decide on the curriculum. There is no agenda that was decided far in advance. The program adapts based on the needs of the individual student.
It makes sense this way. Every student is in a different place and they all need different things. There is no one size fits all solution to helping students launch their ideas. But when you explain the concept people get caught up on the lack of structure and certainty. Uncertainty runs counter to how our mental model for what education should be.
We’re pioneering a new model and it just might be crazy enough to work. And like all great changes, once you understand it, you’ll never go back.
