- alistairSH 6y agoExcept schools largely aren’t failing because the school itself is terrible, they’re failing because the students have massive disadvantages. Vouchers might allow a few exceptional students to leave but strands the average students. And those exceptional students still need to find transport to the school across town. It also assumes a better school actually exists. Society would be better off ensuring equal opportunity at all ages, stable households, good healthcare (including food) instead of blowing up the system to the advantage of a small number of people.
