As long as the school provides free Windows and Office licence to the students, no one is at disadvantage.
Well, it could be argued that training students on closed, proprietary software from a single vendor puts them at a disadvantage, as they'll get locked-in to that software and eventually have to pay for it. "The first hit is free" etc. :-)
A teacher can't be prepared to a situation where all students use the software of their own choice in the classroom, so it must be accepted that the teacher chooses one specific software to be used by all students at school.
Agreed. But we're on the marketing list for the LibreOffice project, and all (presumably) big advocates of free and open source software, so of course we'd like to encourage teachers and schools to use freedom-respecting software, rather than locking students in :-)
