Not really. At least in the university programs I know about, the biggest problem is that teaching sucks because the administration doesn't care about instructional quality at all. That's why you end up with professors who literally can't teach: their value to the organization comes from the grant money they pull in, not their ability or interest in teaching.
Given how wrong you are about the problems of university level instruction, I'm not sure whether to trust your claims about primary and secondary education.
- bryanwb 16y agomy comment only applies to universities, esp. those that function more like country clubs, and doesn't really apply to big reseach-centric schools like Berkeley or UCLA. You are correct that teaching quality there is a reflection of university administration priorities
