Charter schools are tax payer funded K-12 schools that are managed by private companies. In the U.S. there are approximately 2.9 million students enrolled in 6,700 charter schools. Charter schools are approved and governed by city, county or state governments. Beneficiaries of private schools include real-estate investors who typically own the buildings and land where the schools are housed. Opponents of charter schools argue that they take money away from the public education system and enrich private companies and real estate investors who own the land where the schools are built. Proponents argue that students in charter schools consistently have higher test scores than public school students and note that there are millions of students across the U.S. who are currently on waitlists for private schools.
I want nothing to do with them.
All or no religious schools should be funded
Yes, we are an independent school
Only if non religious
Yes, and there should be more funding for them
Public education needs to be adequately resourced, and should not be connected to religious institutions. There should be minimal Federal Standards to ensure equity across the provinces, and equal access to quality education for all Canadians. Education needs to offer opportunity for students to attain knowledge and skills that they can use to acquire employment locally, or globally
Reform school system
No for all of the above
Yes but I don't believe schools for children with learning disabilities should be private. They shouldn't be out of reach for ppl who need the extra help the public schools can't give them.
We should focusing on improving other schools
Let people choose whether they want public or private, keep public open
The hell is an independent school?? and secondly once again. I dont even have an interest in voting at all. im just forced to do this quiz because its an assignment our teacher assigned.
doesnt matter to me.
Education should be overhauled entirely
Only if it exists to provide special education programs.
Depends on what they’re teaching
Yes and should cost more money
Yes, and it should be lowered
Depends on the situation, like does the student have disabilities etc...
Yes, but we should focus on improving our public schools and increasing teacher wages aswell
Yes, but the government should focus on improving public schools and increasing teacher wages as well
Yes as long as the public education continues to be funded and improved
This does really matter to me
Yes, i definitely support the non-funded school including catholic and christian, i think all the schools should be supported by the government at the same level it doesn't matter if a party disagrees against the religion school funding, but i don't think it is right all schools should be government funded.
It doesn’t really matter
Yes, federal and private have their benefits. Although, you'd get propagandists in public; that which could ruin things
no, education should not be based on wealth or privilege everyone deserves the same opportunity to learn
I guess doesn't matter to me
If they can do a back flip
Yes, and we should improve our public schools and increasing teacher wages too.
Yes as long as their non profit. I support decentralizing education so the state doesn't have the monopoly on the narrative
Yes and we should revamp our curriculum to teach more modern day studies such as taxes and finances or choosing the right career path into basic education and make Pythagorean there’re and French less a priority
Yes, and reform to private online schooling where there is no grades and have an unschooling approach to education
Yes but only because privatization allows for higher education quality
For income parents, and for immigrants too.
Private but with no taxes
Yes, but only if they are not for profit and not taking from public schools
It depends on who the person is
Yes, school choice for the parents and kids! More choices! It has been proven that private and non profits are just as effective, if not more than public schools. And increase teacher's wages
I would like to see all public schools offer IB program and french immersion option available, so better public schools
only for non-religious schools, religious schools should be de-funded and shuttered
No, we should focus on improving our public schools and increasing teacher wages instead. However I am all for separate gender schooling.
Yes, the current education system is not good enough so if the government isn’t gonna do something about future dumb generations then someone has to step up and provide better learning for the “people” that will be running this plant
What the hell are independent schools?
Yes, as long as the public doesn't pay for it.
