It is somewhat amusing to hear the opinions on what is the root cause of failing secondary education in this courntry...from someone who has never been a teacher. For their benefit, I will tell you the three reasons why our schools are failing: 1) Lack of discipline. 2) Lack of discipline. 3) Lack of discipline.
Agreed 100%, except when we begin to hear drivel about how unions are promoting "leftist BS" and ruining our schools from people who actually have an audience, it is maddening to think how many people are buying into their garbage. When we hear the same on an internet forum, it is simply amusing.
