What they're doing isn't working. Even they would tell you there's a results crisis. Children aren't learning. They certainly aren't becoming well-prepared for adult life in an efficient manner. They're barely even being supervised and kept out of trouble. The school-to-prison pipeline is getting worse, not better.
These people may "know what they're doing," but they also know what they're doing isn't accomplishing the goals they have for it.
Knowing how to do something that isn't working isn't a benefit, and is certainly not a reason to give them money.
- jimnotgym 3y agoThis thread says multiple times that experts agree that education would be better with more teachers. That suggests 'they' do know what they are doing, they are just denied the resources to do it
- smeej 3y agoThey've been adding teachers for ages. It's still not working. Agreeing on a solution when the results don't bear out that that solution actually solves the problem doesn't make them right.
