I found this in the BBC Scottish news section today. Parents should be given control over their children's education funds to allow them to choose school places, the Scottish Conservative have urged.....
The Scottish Conservatives want to go one stage further and give parents control over their child's personal education budget from the state.
A school's income would then depend on its ability to attract pupils.
The party argues this scheme would encourage poorly performing schools to do better.
They're probably doing it for all the wrong reasons but it looks like a move in the right direction to me. Might be forced to vote Tory for the first time in my life.
