What do you mean by "diverse competitive market of providers"? All I can imagine is religious schools like Catholic, Presbyterian, Suuni, Shi'ite, Taoist, Satanist, and then language schools, vocational schools, universities, sport schools, etc.

Also what do you mean by a "natural geographic monopoly"? Schools are neither natural, nor geographic, nor monopolies. Take Gemany for example. It has 16 different school systems. France has one school system but schools are given quite some leeway. The Netherlands has an extremely complex system with multiple exits and entries. And as for monopolies, there are often multiple schools in the same city, town, village or neighborhood.

I'm curious to read what you mean by those statements.
