In my opinion, yes.
It seems we, in education and educational politics, have forgotten that the goal of education is to help our youth learn the skills and procedures necessary to become productive, content adults rather than becoming unproductive or destructive members of society.
For the last 100 years we have taught children to become literate in reading and math. We’ve downplayed other talents such as music, coordination, and art. We don’t teach kids how to manage their money, pay taxes, get insurance, what interest means, or how to manage emotions, balance family and work, or change a flat tire.
When kids leave high school, those who were awesome at memorization and test taking skills are those who apply for university. Kids that don’t excel at reading and math usually start to hate school because they are unsuccessful - yet with a few very basic skills, students can go forward, find work and become productive. All students, university bound or not, will eventually need to know how to work with others, find a place to live, maintain a car, potentially raise a family and make thoughtful decisions about staying safe and solve life problems.
Why do we believe that all 7 year olds or 17 year olds must know the same (standard) things to exit a grade when they come into a grade level with such different skills and experiences? I’ve had students in the same class that traveled extensively and students who had never traveled beyond a 10-block radius.
hope u will understand it and mark as brainliest i need to level up.
