The free school movement in the 1960s emerged as an alternative educational approach that emphasized student-centered learning, creativity, and democratic principles in the classroom. It sought to break away from traditional, rigid educational structures, advocating for a more informal and flexible environment where children could explore their interests and learn at their own pace. Influenced by progressive educational theories, this movement often included mixed-age classrooms and experiential learning, aiming to foster critical thinking and social responsibility among students.
