Blah

Would you say that Universities help to bring education of the people to a whole new level?

I beg to differ.

It is with the presence of these universities and these requirements for Jobs that restrict the true nature of education. The true pursuit for information. The satisfaction of the young curious mind.

With universities come entrance tests like the A levels.

With these entrance tests come a syllabus made to help students get better results for these tests.

With these syllabus's, our time in schools are wasted, learned basic things over and OVER again.

What kind of education is this, to be focused primarily on the learning of things that would help us get more marks in a test, than to explore and learn the truly wondrous information our world has in store for us. To learn these things to satisfy our curiousity instead of just for the sake of knowing them.

What kind of education system is this?

(Clearly here the problem is the feasibility of providing a curriculum which can satisfy the needs of all the people in a school, there are just people who are too far ahead/behind in each school, that it is impossible to cater for all.) The fail in the exams still apply. Regardless

Random Rant.

Cross Country was fun! Running through the rain is fun!

People online suck! They suck really hard! There are all kinds of people online and they suck! There are just so many retards who think that they are right, when they are just sooooo wrong! Sucks to be with people like that! Especially when they talk to you like they know everything!
Kol is one of the only proper games with nice people >.<

What is the true purpose of education? What is the true purpose of a school? Is it to educate the younger generation? Or is it to bring glory to the school?

Does no one else feel that the school is becoming so orientated towards doing better for the A levels that some of the more key purposes of a school are being ignored?

Do we all have to suffer for the insufficiencies of others?
