In July, 2007, Shanghai, a controversial new school called Meng Mu Tang or House of Mencius Mother, came under the spotlight. The school was trying to operate the unique educational theories on the twelve students aged from four to twelve through ancient teaching methods. The curriculum is based on ancient Chinese teaching methods, and the students spend most of the time studying by themselves or reciting Chinese classics and the works of Shakespeare. They don’t study math or basic language skills. And after its unusual teaching methods and content were exposed, it has caused intense debate. And in late August, it was shut down by Shanghai's education authorities.

4. About Education System The United States has both public schools and private schools. Public schools are government-controlled at the city level, with standards being set partially at the state and federal level. Generally speaking, the city has the most influence on the schools, followed by the state, and finally by the federal government. Funding for public schools comes from all three levels of government, the primary source being local property taxes paid by homeowners. There is no charge for attending public schools.
