Seems to me like we've gone too far down the "add more schooling" solution to a changing world. This approach tries to anticipate what will be in demand for the 40-50 years after these kids graduate from high school and enter the work force; that is a pipe dream. A shift to different skills would be more preferable: skills like creativity, adaptability, ability to learn new things. A worker who can adapt easily to a new world will be much better suited to navigate life than one who is educated in a single career path. These skills are not new, nor is economic and technological change. My grandpa developed these skills early on and used them to great advantage through all the recessions and technological change of the 1970's and 80's. He did quite well for himself, despite not doing anything related to his formal education.
