Educrats fiercely oppose reforms and passively resist any changes not initiated within their own establishment. So, as the battle wages on, students are passed through the assembly line and graduated from high school as a finished product without ever becoming self-sufficient in the most basic academic skills required for further education or to compete in the job market. How can our public education system possibly be reformed when there is no agreement on aim, standards, quality control, or time schedule for achievement. Our public schools do not teach to a recognized national standard curriculum. They do not have standard textbooks that reflect the curriculum or vice versa.
Meaningful testing based on standard curriculums is nonexistent.
No timetable for completing given portions of the curriculum exists. Educrats tell us that we have the most excellent education systems in the world. They warn us against adopting national education policies or standards. They tell us that we are not producing cookie-cutter shapes, but well adjusted, individual, critical thinkers. All missions depend on working to a plan, and school must start with rules of behaviour- discipline.
