Charter schools are tax payer funded K-12 schools that are managed by private companies. In Germany charter schools may only be set up if they do not increase the segregation of pupils by their parents’ income class. Private schools are supported financially by government bodies, comparable to charter schools. The amount of control over school organization, curriculum etc. taken over by the state differs from state to state and from school to school. Academically, all private schools must lead their students to the ability to attain standardized, government-provided external tests such as the Abitur.

Yes, but only if the school population shows no sign of discrimination by the school selection committees.
@9HRKVQV11mos11MO
No, that particularly segregates children from each other. Schools need to have the same standard overall in a country.
@9G7L4G81yr1Y
Yes, but the school program must be identical to the national program OR more advanced (for particularly gifted students).
