I think there are underlying problems with how people are taught today (too much rote learning, in my opinion, being just one). This problem exists in both public and private schools.
I also feel that current public (and many private) school solutions are not scalable. We can't keep throwing hundreds of billions of dollars at education in an attempt to give everyone an equal chance at education.
I do feel that finding better ways to help people become critical thinkers, thereby enabling them to "learn on their own", is best solved at the micro level.
Don't even get me started on the approach of standardisation. People simply don't think and learn the same way. Neuro-diverse learners being just one example.
