If you were a CEO brought in to fix a failing company, would your first instinct be to say "The employees must suck! We need to fire all the employees and replace them with higher-paid ones!"?
Or would you say "I bet these employees are poorly managed. I'm sure they can work more effectively if we change aspects of the process."
Here's an idea that doesn't cost any money: segregate students by ability so that kids can learn at their own pace.

In practice this just becomes the smart kids, normal kids, idiots. Good luck once you get labelled an idiot.
- hugh4 11y agoIf you are an idiot, it's better to recieve an idiot- appropriate education. Less calculus and Shakespeare and more how to get a steady job, handle your finances, and stay away from trouble. It would of course suck if you just had a cold on the day of the rest and wound up in the idiot school by accident, you'd need to review performance regularly. Ideally you'd have more than three levels of schooling. Maybe five, you could label them alpha through epsilon.
