Another important piece from Daniel Denvir in Philly on education "reform", this time focusing on the anti-democratic role of the foundations. Add the Penn foundation to the hit parade of Gates and the rest.

Nowak hired Boston Consultant Group from the corporate world, instead of education researchers, because he believes that education, more than anything, needs a management fix. “It is an operations problem,” he tells CP, “more than an education problem from some perspective.”

I would like to see these documents that he says he has, though.
