Initially, the schooling system was created for children of industry worker like a daycare and also to train them to be industryworkers themselves. Raising them to e punctual, disciplined, and hardworking. Over time as the world evolved and more opportunities opened up they expanded the curriculum to train kids for jobs and not actually educate them. Now there were schooling institutions before the system was set up where they actually educated students but that was mostly universities and back then you had to be brilliant already and a man to go there. But kids who were actually interested in learning or had specific skills (and rich folks) got personally trained by scholars and what not. And so your question shouldn't be how is the education system failing because its not, its doing exactly what it is built for. Instead you should ask yourself how can i expand and surpass that education system trying to keep me done and training me to become another tax payer.
