Education is becoming more and more results-driven. Well, at least in the UK. Tests and standardisation don't leave much room for meaningful development. Children and young adults here are prepped to recite textbook answers to pass exams, rather than build a good understanding of things. Last-minute cramming wins out. We don't foster concepts like autonomous learning (breaking problems down, recognising where the limits of your knowledge lie), critical thinking.
