   Yes, let’s improve the exsiting education system.Not just Tibetan Monastery system, but the global one One idea works for all, doesn’t it? If you create a good one that combines advantages of both ordinary samsara system and Buddhism/religion/spirituality values, you have created a good system for all human beings that will significantly reduce their suffering.Thus, we achieve our goal.Your idea of creating such school is wonderful. Try it! If it succeed, all schools will have a good example to look up to.You are going to need a group of professionals to assist you with research, analysis and evaluation of information. They will write you reports. They will present you feasibility studies with different options and pros and cons, before you make a final decision.You may find that there are more than one exsiting pretty good education systems in the world, only that they do not teach knowledge about the spiritual world. (They would like to have you to teach them Dharma).You may like their cultures because they teach their people to have high moral standard and a community spirit ( happiness, not money , make this world a better world for all, not just myself or my family )You may find these good systems in countries in north Europe, Kingdom of Bhutan (of course!), Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, probably Canada You may be surprised that your monks sent to these countries do not corrupt, because people in those countries do not tolerate corruptions, nor do their government officials.You may find Oops, I talk too much. Should leave you to explore the samsara. Have fun.(P.S.: Apprenticeship and TAFE system are for monks who want to leave the monastries and need a skill for living. )
