Elementary schools could have less classroom time and more outside time. Some countries that don't start serious schooling (classroom time, homeword, teaching pre-defined curricula, etc) until ages 7 or 8, do just fine on those standardized tests that compare students around the world. Of course, geography plays a HUGE part in this, but even then, more time outside would still be better.
