This is not about Garfield methodology and resources. The entire article was about movement in the other direction. I.e., no one is looking to translate Garfield methodology and resources to other communities. Rather, Garfield is importing methodology from another community, viz., Singapore.
The question, then, is how would Singapore methodology translate to the school you have in mind?
