Kind of agree
I went to a rubbish school, parents weren't pushy and I'm laid back. I did OK.
My kids go to a great school who are really interested in the children, I'm interested in there schooling and they are laid back. The school and parents need to be the main driver (from my experience).
I went to a rubbish school, and the only bad impact it had for me was that it wasn't an Oxbridge feeder school.
At the end of the day I think it depends a lot more on the kid...whether they do the work, whether they're interested, whether they get enough sleep and eat properly so they can concentrate etc.
