            Google Alerts brought me an interesting Canadian article that
links education freedom/
choice to high PISA results:

BNStory/Front/home?cid=al_gam_mostemail
or

As I understand the article: The Canadian state of Alberta provides/allows
families the  best/most choice in types of education (in comparison to
other states). The different types  of education stimulate each other and
provide healthy competiton.

An interessanting quote:
"It isn't per capita spending, as Alberta's per capita spending on
education is about the  same as Ontario's."

The quality of education isn't related to the amount of governmental
spending but to the  amount of  freedom / choice.

Something we of course already knew ;)!
