Weirdest Schools That Actually Exist
Education can be very different around the world. It can involve innovative teaching techniques or even methods so strange that sound like they came straight out of a fiction novel. Students enrolling in the more unusual schools are encouraged to look outside of the realm of traditional schooling.
So, without further ado, here are some of the weirdest schools around the world!
Husband Hunting School, Japan
If you are single and ready to mingle, this might be your perfect fit! In Japan, women have started prioritising their careers, resulting in most of them remaining single and unmarried for a large chunk of their lives. Not just a focus on their career, but high expectations and the demand for the perfect "Mr Right" also answer the question of these women being single. Now, this is where this school comes into the picture. This school was founded so that Japanese women could easily find their ideal life partner, and it also teaches them the various principles of starting a family. With this fascinating school, you will find the man of your dreams in no time.
Santa Claus School, Michigan
When the Christmas season rolls around, and you see the various Santa’s bestowing us with their jolly presence, they may have gone to school to learn to be a professional Santa! Being Santa Claus is not just about wearing a red coat, carrying a bag full of goodies, and having a white beard. This school in Michigan, founded by Charles H. Howard, goes above and beyond to teach its students the etiquette and mannerisms of Santa Claus. The main aim of this school is to preserve the history of the biggest Christmas icon. Now that is wholesome, isn’t it?
Snake charming school, India
This one might sound like a hiss-terical thing to study - or straight-up terrifying if you ask us! Although we are all familiar with the exotic art of snake charming, not many of us know that this art offers a degree course too! Believe it or not, being surrounded by snakes is not that dangerous when doing this course. Before starting their lessons, the snake charmers feed the snakes a herbal mixture to remove the effect of the snake's poison. So, if you want to put your charming skills to use then this school is the one!
The school of Conjuring Arts, New York
No, this is not the famous horror film that you are thinking of. The Conjuring Arts Research Centre offers courses on unique topics. These courses include hypnosis, deceptive gambling, science and history cards, mentalism, and ventriloquism. This school is appealing to practitioners and performers of the conjuring arts. The conjuring arts fill the gap between private collections of magic and related history and information and the public. So, if you want to learn the art of conjuring all that is unique, this might be the perfect place for you!
Equestrian Psychology & Sports Science, Nottingham
Okay, so this one is a little weird. If you've ever dreamed of being a Doctor Doolittle, then this would be the perfect fit for you! It teaches students the fundamentals of equine behaviour and insight into a horse-human relationship. This course includes horse whispering; horse-riding skills and gives you sound knowledge and understanding of physiological principles of equine sports science that will enable you to relate to these majestic animals on a different level.
