The schools, can share a specialist on different days of the week, or if there is an economy of scale then parents will choose it.
Sure there may be schools that handle kids with disciplinary issues, like they do today in the public school system.
- kristjansson 5y agoI think the point is that, like a lot of cost problems, a relatively small proportion of users end up accounting for a relatively large share of costs. Just excluding those expensive users (implicitly or explicitly) is a ‘neat’ way to reduce costs and improve outcomes at a particular school. Unfortunately under a funding-follows-kids system that leaves a small population with $X in funding that costs $10X to serve. Maybe grouping all of those users provides enough economy of scale, but that’s not obvious, and sounds a bit like an asylum to boot.
