já aqui tinha dado nota do 'problema' das 'escolas milagre', lá pelos states... vem agora, a talhe de foice, a questão do filantropismo e do modo como se gastam rios de dinheiro, com objectivos 'escondidos', como políticos e sociais,,, na rede de escolas públicas... mas esparsamente...!
"You'd think nearly $4 billion would be enough
to have a decisive impact on most things. That's how much philanthropy
gives each year to improve and transform K-12 public education.
This support goes to thousands of mission-driven, talented
individuals who annually commit themselves to transforming education,
particularly at low performing inner-city schools. The money and talent
flow into reform-minded local school districts, as well as
organizations like Teach for America, charter schools, local community
and advocacy groups, and many others.
Together, the philanthropists and reformers have spread into schools across the country.
And that's the problem. They've spread themselves too thinly."
por cá a questão não se coloca nestes exactos termos... mas a coisa é para pensar com maturidade...!
para além de coisas como a epis, escolas fénix,... de que se sabe pouco ou nada...
