>>12184894I'm my experience it's a mixture of people becoming lazy and politics. I'm in a country with a former superb education system which got degraded heavily. I was especially interested in the development of mathematical education for a while and compared it in different time periods.
I'm my times, people always complained that our kids are in school too much and they need more free time. Teacher quality degraded because their education itself became shorter and shorter, they never visited any real job and have no clue about what is needed in the industry, plus hravy partying is now the norm. Where, e.g. maths was relying on giving students a geometrical understanding and direct applicability 100 years ago, now it's just learning a few formulas by heart.
The political part is that companies want "well-educated" pupils faster, so politicians shortened school life and put almost everyone in the highest Form of school. Yes, even future woodworkers etc. The result is a loaded curriculum in a shortened time span where pupils learn nothing about real life, instead are disillusioned and learn to hate all subjects.
tl;dr: people are lazy, industry wants young "well-educated" pupils fast, teachers don't know shit.
