There would still ahve to be standards to remain open as a school at all, but under this model I would be very suprised if a really horrible school that was failing miserably remained open long enough for the govt to shut it down. I wouldn't be opposed to some minimum testing requirements though, as long as they are strictly to determine a school's certification to remain open and not it's level of funding.
