Great Regulars: This poem weighs the old-fashioned

learn-by-rote manner of teaching, against the learn-as-you-play more liberal style, and finds that poetry, although included as something creative to do along with "Projects" in this new, experimental way of teaching, is not itself actually taught because it has rules, and no one "knows enough/To know how the rules work".

from Frieda Hughes: The Times: Undisciplined freedom
