The problem is this, he is trying to solve problems with the same thinking that went to build Microsoft and make him a billionaire. These problems have to be solved with a different type of thinking than the ones that caused rivals to Microsoft to go out of business and cause people to lose their jobs and go into poverty.
Public education has a problem where most students are poor and suffer emotional and psychological issues that make it hard to study and focus on work. Many have broken homes and dysfunctional families. You can't just throw money at a problem like that and expect it to be solved. Not unless you are using the money to make sure those families are no longer poor and have money to raise them to a middle class income. But you can't just pay them money, you have to create jobs they can work for that pays them the money.
With Microsoft they earn money by automating things that eliminate jobs, and people enter poverty when their jobs are eliminated and they aren't qualified for any other sort of work. So you'd have to set up an education for the student's parents to get them better jobs so they can get out of poverty.
