What Did You Learn at School Today?

Synopsis
What each society expects to achieve by putting its children in the care of professional teachers is very different. Schools in several countries (concentrating mainly on China, Russia and Britain, but including Israel and Sweden) are contrasted. The different methods of motivation and discipline show that the general atmosphere of the country is very much reflected in the school life.
