I say that education should not be that black and white approach.
My approach is to focus on different aspects of development of a personality and solidifying character.
At beginning, it should be possible for parents to take the role, to create environment where a child, is able learning to recognize interests and abilities. Then when there is a frame and direction that a child is emitting, then look for a suited teacher/master, in a trade for direct experience, or a direction of knowledge that is past your own abilities. But that does not mean that parents should delegate this responsibility completely to someone else. Parents need to stay in the role of observers, as well as being active in the process. Ideally, parents should discover, and learn new things with the kids.
