What's wrong with our education system?

I. Questions

1) Katherine Birbalsingh believes that the "system is broken because it keeps poor children poor". The system of education doesn’t want that pupils become bad with bad mark. Students stay on the bottom of the social ladder because they are poor on the social background.

2) Students have to make a success of their exam. But in contrary, teachers give excuses if they do not make a success of their exam. She says that it is a "culture of excuses", because teachers give excuses to excuse the students for their bad behavior at school because students aren’t responsible of themselves. It’s that why, this problem on this education exists. For the education, teachers are responsible of children and education. But teacher can’t help all children because the government doesn’t help teachers. 


3) This government ministers think that the discipline is very important and he supports teachers. They think that certain schools aren’t equal comparing to others schools. Consequently, they want help teachers.

The future teachers don’t learn to manage the behavior of the pupils. I think that the government will be better if he decides to prepare the professors to become good teachers.

4) Katherine Birbalsingh says:
- to be responsible for yourself,
- looking after everyone all the time,
- having a job for life no matter what you do
- having your place at school no matter what you do
- don’t think to the future, to leave the present time

5) She wants to give more power to teachers. Moreover, she wants to try to stop the fall of the level of the examinations. Teachers should be honest.


II. My opinion

In French, the system of the education is difficult for certain pupils who don’t manage to follow the course. That is why, they decide to stop the school early. What is not a good thing to do, I think. 
In the French system, there are many reforms in the education. Consequently, the pupils have to follow the movement even if that doesn’t please them. He has to adapt himself with the government. Every generation knows modifications in the system. What is disturbing for the pupils, what don’t know any more as studies. For example, my relatives hadn’t the same system that me and my children will have a various of mine.
Today, even if we continue our studies and even if we have our diplomas, we aren’t sure to find a work. Thus, for what that serves to make long studies if we don’t find a work? When we have to meet a boss for a work, he says to us that we have enough qualifications. But if we do not give us our chance, how to have qualifications? It is a sort of vicious circle.
