At Bharatiya Vidya Mandir school at Kochi, we started on BASIC in the 5th std. It was CBSE. Engineering First+Second Sem at CUSAT, it same thing BASIC .. after two years of C++ at school. Makes you wonder who the hell makes these things. So my opinion is, schools can and do change depending on how good the teachers/principal are. But whats really bad are the universities, where its not so easy.
