In the end, you go to the Ninja Academy to be a Ninja. On the other hand, Hanabi was being groomed to become the Clan Leader, and likely had her own special curriculum that prepared her for that role. It's unlikely that she would be sent on missions anyway, although she presumably could be hired as a specialist if needed.

I don't think this implies that all Hyuga are uneducated by the Academy (Neji and Hinata went, after all). But the Hygua have special abilities that the Academy can't teach, like the Gentle Fist, byakugan use etc. In that sense, being home schooled is better for the Hyuga.

It seems to me though that just as not all Uchiha were police (Sasuke's mom was, as far as we know, a stay-at-home mom), not all Hyuga are Ninja. But they are all trained in at least their clan basics, like how the Uchiha perform Fireball to be considered adults and the Hyuga can do Gentle Fist.
