I know this is typical for the US so this is more for US people to respond to. I wouldn’t say that it is the best system for work, just wondering about the disconnect.

          “Functional” does not equal “practical”, nor does it even remotely equate to “looking down on primary school teachers”

          Let’s go ahead and ignore every other “functional solution” because it’s too (insert excuse) to work.

          What we’re currently doing in the US works so well, it’s why we lead the world in education… I think. Idk, I never learned any nuance besides standardized tests. But I’m ok, teachers and kids are just lazy

            You might want to look up the educational standards for lower grades to HS.

            It is better at the college level, though.

          No its because I am a teacher and you have no idea what you’re talking about
