I'd be 100% fine with private schools losing all government funding and/or disappearing. If you have a properly funded public school system, with good managment, competent school boards, and progressive/modern education policy, you can fill the gap that private schools are fufilling. And the below doesn't need to have a dedicated school. They could be appropriately funded and staffed programs within any school in the public system.
- Schooling with specific focus; Arts, Technology, Theatre, Sports, etc.
- Schooling for nuerodivergent children.
- Schooling for new Canadians/refugees/etc.
I think the inclusive policies could use some work. Not all individuals need to be within the same class base, but perhaps you have shared classes for certain things, to promote some inclusive policy but still make sure you're directing appropriate supports/classes to those students with whatever challenges they have.
And to be clear, I'm just a parent expressing thoughts and ideas. I have no experience in this and fully recognize that. My ideas could be bad.
