This is a school mostly liked by families who approve of and admire Soviet system of preschool discipline - which means it is okay for children to be yelled at, DRAGGED by their collars and hands, to be called names - such as fool, clumsy, stupid, at simply left alone on a carpet to cry for a fairly long time (more than 30 minutes). The school is significantly less permissive and highly puritanical in outlook and less likly to take pleasure in the emotional aspects of teacher-pupil relationships and like to show strong authoritarian attitudes toward children than the western approaches believe and allow.
