Variety in the modes of education is a good thing: not every pupil is effectively educated in a public school.
But, I can't help but think this is merely stealth privatisation of education: a profit making exercise. That it might actually have positive outcomes for pupils is a happy accident.
while it's great there's robust debate (elsewhere in this thread), gven all the other self-serving things this govt has done, I think we can take this as unlikely to go well for 'the rest of us'...
This is just kickbacks for the companies that helped them get elected. Remember these charter schools are going to get tax dollars but are for profit.
