Maybe not "control means of production" sperg zone of the left. But rather a moderate left that believes privatization makes for suboptimal public goods. People who believe a central governing body is best positioned to decide what constitutes a solid education.
OTOH government initiatives (especially ones that require software dev, online services) almost always leave a lot to be desired. Even if a government miraculously came up with an alternate to "Google Home School", the fact remains that market forces are in play now. The government for the first time ever must provide exceptional customer service when it comes to education.
Personally, the utopian view is that we are freed from the tyranny of proximity and we will all have access to the best teachers and education services the world has to offer. The dystopian view is as Ab has outlined, we trade tyranny of proximity for tyranny of corporate mind-control.
