When I was a kid at school (30 years ago!) we had some kind of assembly language forced down us.. which was good, but most of the class didn't get it. Luckily I was interested in computers anyway and already knew z80 assembly.
I think there are always only going to be a small set of kids in the class that will get or understand programming anyway, without resorting to just "simpler" forms (such as Scratch, for example).. whether this is a good thing, is of course up for debate, but regardless..
These days, I think (as a parent) I'd be pleased if the school was teaching Haskell, so from a personal perspective: +1 Argentina schools, keep at it!
