Would you consider a school like this?

No, I wouldn't. "Unschooling" in the disguise of "schooling" doesn't work. Neither does learning history as part of everyday life. Everyday life as we know it does not teach the past of a nation or the things that have us to where we are now. Letting kids choose what they feel like learning is not education, it's playing a game. Kids of course aren't going to choose things they need to learn if they can goof off and just paint or play all day. You can have a structured environment without oppressing your students. As a parent I wouldn't want an education so loosely structured with the kids running the show for a school to put my children into. While it sounds good in theory these types of scenerios don't work as well as they show they do. They are comparing their results within themselves because they don't have the ability to be compared to traditional and other forms of educational facililities. Of course they are going to look successful when your school is all you have to compare to. Statistics in that area are misleading and not always what they appear. I have a hard time as a trained educator with a masters degree believing that letting the kids run the show and dictate the curriculum is going to teach them anything. You may as well let them be playing video games all day.
