Good schools, bad schools

HPP suggests we need an alternative to existing ‘good schools’:

So actually, ironically, other than being consigned to darkness and powerlessness, those deprived of the “good schools” are actually deprived of a non-thing. So they are not really so badly off. The thing that empowers the powerful is a non-thing. It is only a means for power in a distorted society. It does not have instrinsic value in itself. Sadly, even after forming a child negatively, or rather for that very reason, it continues to exist and be looked up to and aspired for. But this also means that the deprived have now to be empowered with something new , which can begin to exist and grow from them. .

    I can see the disparity not only in schools but also in Universities. Mine for an example.
    Like the Post says, the education system in India needs a change. Somehow the welfare state model is not evident in our society as much as in Europe and US (school education there is free of cost). Is it because we don’t have the money, or that the bureaucrats eat them all up?
