Also on the same side of the coin - used often - the lower down the income ladder - the lesser the abilities of parents to understand the world around them. In other words, less intelligent then those working in the public education system.

The parents are seen as victims of their circumstances, and therefore are in need of being rescue by the very public education system who wants parents to think and act as victims.

The status-quo of the public education system really represents a potpourri of education quality according to the social-income ladder based on the means of the parents’ ability to seek out legal options. The low income schools, ends up with the failing school each and every time of the lowest education quality. As one moves up the social-income ladder, education quality of schools become a delicate balance of various education quality levels dependent on the social-incomes means of the parents. The default level, is what the school is willing to provide in terms of education services.

Unfortunately, the default level at the school level is the minimum legal level of education services provided under the legislated education acts. The status-quo is the default level, and as such, its the lowest education quality, at the highest price possible. The low income parents and their children are stuck in schools with only one option of the lowest education quality that barely meets the legal requirements under the education legislative laws.

Is there any wonder, why low income parents rush to choice, just like the parents in the higher income groups will rushed to choice?  Its no coincidence, that the public education systems whether in Canada or United States, are delivering and providing education services at the minimum legal parameters of the legislative education and school acts. The lowest possible education quality for the highest price possible.
