When the student is ready, the teacher appears.
Teachers are weak, but that's because strong people won't lie and claim they will do the impossible.
Our educational bureaucracy is demanding a curriculum fit for a 90% white country where vocational schools are plentiful, disruptors are expelled, and where expelled students or dropouts go to work at 16 in manufacturing or trades.
None of those factors exist anymore. The schools are collapsing - good, becuse it hastens the end of the Empire of Lies,but bad because of all the human tragedies that are going to be caused.
I appreciate the wisdom of your comment, but I fear it is just as anachronistic as the educational bureaucracy that you go on to describe.
Now that we have insights into the true nature of the academic backgrounds of the new "leaders" of academia from back when they were graduate and post-graduate students, we can infer how those moral judgements trickled down to the rank-and-file students who weren't "Dean" material and chose to go into "teaching" instead.
In other words, look at the leaders of universities today, and realize that their fellow students of yesteryear are the teachers of our children in K-12 today.
