I
am looking on in horror at the state of education in it's present form.
The old Sysan Proverb states the soup of life is salty enough without adding
tears to it and I believe our Government is adding plenty of tears to the
education system at this time in history.
Parents
are removing their children left, right and centre to escape the draconian
damaging effects of Government control over an education system that is
failing, and letting down, so badly, so many children and families.
Of
course Home Education is a freedom that every parent has, but not all parents
are equipped to educate their children in a way that children need to thrive in
a modern world. How can they when they themselves have been so badly let down
by that very same system even before their children get there and inherit a system
that has so badly failed so many before them.
We are all swimming against the tide. Education is not just about learning Maths, Science, etc etc, education should encompass how to learn so that this can be applied to every facet in life. This is an essential ingredient to help children get through this thick soup of life. To help the child is to help the adult.
It is not just about subject, it is also about substance and that magic substance ingredient, in my opinion the most important and essential ingredient is missing from our current education system.
In
times gone past political education philosophy was about controlling the masses
to work in the factories and in the fields, but that has lead to what other
experts have termed 'dumbing down the masses'. That long term effect has lead
to todays chaos in the classroom and ever more people leaving in droves.
The
whole education system needs to be overhauled but I fear that reform is
something even the so called experts in education are having difficulty in
finding the answer to.
Meanwhile,
we wait for someone to come up with an answer to how we stop parents taking
their children out of schools to home educate, and Governments desperately
trying to stop them, fearing that the children will not get the education that
philosophy dictates and they have a right to receive by law, yet ironically
that very substance in our education system they are trying to prevent parents
leaving, itself is missing that essential ingredient.
That
essential ingredient to education that will assist a child to progress and get
on in life is a right enshrined in law for a reason, those events that lead to
that law being made and those that devised and developed it, understood the
importance of that Law for a harmonious society and advancement of the human
race. A law that will assist our children to progress and be successful in
life. yet paradoxically knowing how the education system has failed the parents
and contributed to the social decline that we see with ever higher suicide
rates, bullying and violence and parents feeling like they have lost
control.
On
the other hand we have the problem of how do we stop schools giving up and off
rolling children by teachers that have had that all essential ingredient absent
from their training. This lack of essential ingredient in their training is so
very evident and causing chaos across the education system.
There
are so many problems with the education system it is hard to see where it all
starts, but one problem is leading to another and all the solutions they are coming
up with are just causing more chaos.
Our
education system is in a mess and unless someone comes up with that missing
solution to get it back on track we can only expect things to get worse.
The
education system is a mess and the more solutions that are implemented by
so called experts, the more of a mess they are making. Experts failed solutions
are causing ever more issues and ever more social woes. The failure of the
education system is costly to society in so many ways.
The
thick soup of life just gets thicker and thicker when it comes to education,
despite all good intentions, in my opinion by the laws of nature the experts
have currently got it all wrong.
Policy
makers really do need to start listening because if they do not, who knows
where this will end with the social decline unfolding before our very eyes.
The
deficit in the education system is having serious knock on effects right across
all facets of life for millions of people, it is a recipe for disaster, it
really is time our Government woke up and stop sleep walking us all into disaster.
