The system isn't just failing—it's designed to keep people in a cycle. Think about it: schools teach compliance, not creativity. Kids are graded on memorization, not real-world skills. We’re training kids to fill roles, not to think for themselves. The result? A generation that can follow instructions but can’t solve problems. It’s not about failing kids—it’s about preparing them for a world that’s already outdated. We need a system that values curiosity, adaptability, and critical thinking, not just test scores and standardized answers.

The system isn’t failing—it’s evolving. Schools are adapting to prepare students for a complex, changing world, with a focus on foundational skills that enable lifelong learning. While there are flaws, the core mission of education isn’t about compliance—it’s about equipping students to think critically and solve problems, even if the methods aren’t perfect yet.

The system is evolving, but the pace of change isn’t matching the needs of students. While schools are trying to adapt, many are still stuck in outdated models that prioritize rote learning over creativity and critical thinking. There’s potential for growth, but it requires more than incremental changes—it needs a fundamental shift in how we value and approach education.
