I'm not sure replacing racism with classism (oh, you are poor, you need to go away to school) is much better.
Extensive supervision and scrutiny? I mean, are we not doing some of this with public schools now? And if not, why not?
And seriously, we (in the US) allow lots of options for troubled kids without supervision ("work the bad out of you), we've allowed conversion therapy for LGBT+ children, have little oversight on for-profit schools and we allow folks to force their religion on their children, even if the 16- or 17-year-old doesn't believe.
I highly doubt there would be oversight.
I'd also like to point out that the Canadian schools were really, really recent, and I don't think much has changed since.
