I think something like this is one of the only reasonable ways to pull off a decent unschooling experience with working parents. During the pandemic school year we pulled our kids out of the system and had a generally positive experience with homeschooling which evolved into unschooling as we learned more, but we never had the time and energy we had hoped to create those learning moments, and our kids' drive was hopelessly oriented towards video games. Even still, they made interesting projects and became quite articulate, if not traditionally academic. Public school is a mess at best- completely outsourced to Pearson and oriented towards an outmoded model of authoritarian compliance, it fails to prepare kids for life and beats the curiosity right out of them... but its also rather turnkey for working families and difficult to compete with their resources for a well-rounded experience.
