There is a difference between a science free school and a science "free school". Or for those who use hyphens, a science-free schol is not a science free-school.
Phew - for a moment there I thought you were talking about a school which was 'science free' :S
I have put "free school" in scare quotes to help those who do not understand good English. ;)
I believe this is one of those questions where the original title was ambigiuous in good English :p
Personally I think this might have been a case for innovative use of the Oxford Comma.
I also misunderstood, but I'm glad the article turned out to be about something more positive than I feared.
