Well i have to admit thats a very nice concept to educate! Woo Hoo! In USA parents can choose to Home school their kids.All states very on the testing part.Some states the kids go to a real school and get tested once a month to make sure they are keeping up.Then some other states just require the parents to keep track of the hours the kids are in so called school{which can include a walk around the back yard talking about bugs & stuff} I know here in USA the library has a section dedicated just for home schooling all the books are there. Learning power and power is knowlage! Good question M8! <------ mate

I've never heard of that before. It sounds really interesting. It must be very efficient and time-saving. I know they don't do this where I live (Michigan), but I'm not sure about other parts of the world.
