中英中学教育对比-----BBC Documentary: Are our kids tough enough?

Would Chinese-style education work on British kids? Many people are curious about this question, no matter Chinese or British. BBC made a documentary called "Are our kids tough enough?" in order to do an experiment. In this unique experiment, five teachers from China take over the education of 50 teenagers in a Hampshire school to see whether the high-ranking Chinese education system can teach us a lesson.  After four weeks, the Chinese and British systems will go head to head with the whole year group sitting exams to see which teaching style gets the best results. You can find more information through this link-http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b065661d

Below is only a part of this documentary that I can find on the YouTube. Watch this short video and leave your comment. According the video, what should students do in the Chinese class? Why did the classroom management problem come out and brother the Chinese teacher a lot? Do you have strong motivation to study well at school? Why and why not? How did the Chinese teacher teach British students?
