Andy Rotherham, aka eduwonk, posts Ed Sector’s latest policy brief today (Fair Trade: Five Deals to Expand and Improve Charter Schooling). His first idea is the best one, IMHO: Trade charter school caps for more rapid expansion of proven charter schools. Sounds like a plan. And good common sense. Come to think of it, you could boil all of education reform down to two simple rules:
Rule No 1. If it works, do more of it.
Rule No. 2. If it doesn’t work, stop doing it.
Charters like KIPP and Achievement First meet the Rule No. 1 test.
