It has been a disaster from the start, but it got worse and worse with time. I remember reading that the schools would give the children iPads and other things just so they would sign up for that school. Basically they would bribe the children to get the parents to send them so that they could make more money. And that's only the top of the iceberg ...

(PS: I changed the title from "free school" to "charter school" which is the correct english name for what is described in the article.)

Don't take your eyes off the fact that her party introduced this pile of garbage, and that the people who pushed for it then left politics to get rich off of the system they designed.

Bring back medieval punishments and apply them to these corrupt bastards, please.

To the pillory!

I doubt she and her party will manage to do anything to improve the school system for anyone but the investors (which, at least did, include herself https://www.svt.se/nyheter/inrikes/skolministern-vackte-forvaning-i-riksdagen)

Interesting that she comes out of that system that she criticizes. That will be a tough fight for the school companies. I hope she has so much integrity as it seems.

Luckily, Germany didn’t put it eggs into the iPad school basket. Observing my kids learning with it by Gamification Learn Apps, it has this bad taste of game addiction not learning.
