- Yes, it comes across to me as too US-centric. I completely fail to understand how anyone could write under this topic without at least mentioning A.S. Neil and Montessori. It's not my field, but I thought Neil invented "progressive education"; certainly he was one of the most important popularisers and propagandists. Then there's Dartington Hall [1] [2], another British experiment, starting in the 1920s. Aldous Huxley sent his kids there and some of the educational methods in his novel "Island" are based on it.
