School choice is the civil rights issue of the 21st century.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It is only through such real-life daily struggles and challenges that a genuine sensitivity to human rights can be inculcated. This is a truth that is not limited to school education: it applies to all of us.
I believe there ought to be school choice, so that parents can choose within the public school system.
I see education in the U.K. as a civil rights struggle.
Education promotes equality and lifts people out of poverty. It teaches children how to become good citizens. Education is not just for a privileged few, it is for everyone. It is a fundamental human right.
Yes, I believe in school choice. Parents know far better than government bureaucrats what their children need from an education standpoint, and they should be permitted to make that choice.
School reform is not enough. The notion of schooling itself must be challenged.
The Obama administration's hostility to school choice programs is well known.
America's public schools have served their purpose. Free and compulsory education was good for a somewhat unpromising young nation.
I believe education should be a right for every child, but tragically in many parts of world it is a privilege for certain children whose parents have money. There are 72 million children in the world who don't go to school and many of them are in Africa.
Every child has a right to education as much as to life, and every woman the right to live.
