I'm in the 'schools are a moral disaster' camp. The final paragraph sums it up: > So, I’m a sceptic of the ‘school is a moral disaster that we’ll look back on with shame’ position. Or at least, I think it seems weird to hold the view that schools are a moral disaster without thinking that most employment is a moral disaster. That's exactly the point. I think that a lot of people who think school is a moral disaster would agree that most employment is too. The only thing that mitigates this somewhat is that you have choice once you are out of school. However school has a lot to do with setting us up for the moral disaster that is employment - that is its primary purpose, and it is very effective at it.
