It would be a disaster, as in, something that might be conceivably even worse than what we've got now.
1. There's no way that parents could choose quality schools, especially if there was enough churn in the market.
2. Maximizing profits would be at odds with providing sufficient capacity, meaning that there would be shortages of "seats" and possibly even regions with effectively no schools.
3. There would be continual bail-outs of "too big to fail" school operators, and schools that go bankrupt after exhausting their start-up capital.
4. It would be a logistical nightmare if parents can't find nearby schools for their kids. Imagine each family logging a couple of hours per day on the road transporting kids to schools.
The state would still have to function as the back-up for school failures and capacity shortage, basically providing the inefficiency needed to guarantee access to everybody.
