After the Collapse of Public Schools is the fourth in a series of
books Richard Neal has written on the subject of freedom of choice
in education. It is the culmination of many years of research and
experience and covers topics not included in the author's previous
books. The key lessons revealed in this book are: The government's
interest in education can be satisfied while simultaneously
allowing maximum freedom of choice for all families. Without
certain essential prerequisites in place, there can be no true
freedom of choice. There are powerful lobbies in The Education
Establishment that willfully resist change. To them, freedom is the
enemy. Many obstacles are in the way of freedom of choice, most of
which are contrived to perpetuate the status quo. Striking
differences exist between "education" in government schools and
meaningful learning under freedom of choice True freedom in
education unleashes a bounty of new learning opportunities not
possible in government schools. The dominance of the government
monopoly in education is coming to an end as competition is allowed
to flourish. Technology is becoming an unstoppable force in
releasing students from compulsory attendance (incarceration?) in
government schools. Revealed in this book are the fundamental
guiding principles for effective learning, most of which are not
possible in public schools. This book provides a unique forecast of
what education will be like After the Collapse of Public Schools.
