Curriculums could be developed by teachers with proven track records of producing smarter then average students. Teacher performance would be based on how well their students perform on standardized tests as well as the length of time it takes their students to move on and graduate. Standardized testing based on teacher feedback would determine how and when a student graduates. And I'm not talking a test a year kind of stuff. I'm talking weekly and monthly testing.
As opposed to current classroom conditions where you have 30 plus students per teacher, you pair it down to 10 students or so. And instead of moving from one grade to the next, you create levels of education, say 3. A teacher is responsible for that level for however long it takes her students to move onto the next, usually a span of 3-5 years.
How do you measure whether a student is smarter than average? How do you decide which teachers were apparently responsible for this student being smarter than average? How do you get your baseline information? At what level would these standards be applied? Local? State? National?
How would these "levels" be any different from the current grade system?
