Can there be a low-cost model for private schools?

Of course it would be wrong to blindly assume that all private schools are better than government ones. The point I am trying to make here is that some parents in rural and slum areas of India actually have more choice, and exercise greater responsibility, than the average Malaysian parents. Most of us simply accept whatever school the government says our children must go to. But many poor Indian parents, out of love and care for their own children, actively take things into their own hands. They refuse to be dependent on government.
