"There is significant agreement among parents as to the ultimate ends of schooling.
 
"In U.S. polls dating from the early seventies to the present, parents have repeatedly said that they send their children to school mainly to improve their career prospects and help them lead richer and more satisfying lives.

Knowledge...
Skills...
Values...
Choice."
 
-Andrew J. Coulson, Market Education
 
 
Have you thought about what you want from education?
 
Do you think your vision, your choices, and your interactions would differ if you had more clarity on this question?
