[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In most European countries, a majority of schools are publicly funded, but in the better-performing countries, parents are typically free to choose the schools their children will attend, and as such, the funding follows the students, as opposed to automatically being allocated to schools. Effectively, the schools have to compete for students in order to sustain funding. [/quote] I hadn't considered that, PP. Perhaps Warren Buffet is wrong about the random assignment part. Public schools would probably improve faster if they have to compete for students and funding. Are the public schools in these countries independently operated or are they operated by the state. In other words, do charters play a role in improving public education in those countries?[/quote]
