"Proper Education" is a remix by the Swedish DJ and producer Eric Prydz. The original song by Pink Floyd, Another Brick in the Wall, Part II, was remixed to create this song. It made it to number two on the UK Singles Chart and reached number one on the US Billboard Hot Dance Airplay chart in 2007, making it the first remixed recording of an original song to reach the top spot on this chart. On December 8, 2007, the song also received a nomination for best remixed recording at the 2008 Grammy Awards.

The music video for this song includes children escaping school while doing parkour stunts and other various actions, like jumping from building to building. It also features them performing energy efficient tasks, such as replacing lightbulbs with their energy efficient equivalent, turning off televisions, putting bricks in toilets (to save water) etc.
