I'm starting to wonder if this is a chance for school boards/principles to get away from 'the MoE overreach' and constant curriculum alterations...

I can see how it would be tempting to be given funds and get back to teaching how they think is the best way to do it (rightly or wrongly!).

Maybe.

But it could also just be a cynical power grab, trying to force for profit education into the system.

Oh sure, that's what the 3 horsemen are doing, but the schools could play this too... It's risky, but every teacher I've met had indicated things have been bad for decades
