I came across this article on Mashable’s business blog, it states that children should be trained from young to attain a business mindset. There is no doubt that competitiveness in the business sector is increasing at phenomenal rates where admissions to business schools is getting literary impossible. Parents are constantly challenging the nation’s educational system in whether it would place their children in one of top ivy league schools.
Private schools and public schools are enhancing the educational system in order to adapt to the evolving society. Schools now require students to be more dynamic and quick witted to develop children to fit into today’s fast paced economy. Businesses demand employees to be innovative while retaining structural process of decision making. Schools are being commercialised where private schools offer international programs and local schools offering the traditional A level. However, isn’t education supposed to be standardised across the nation? Parents are willing to pay substantial amounts for private schools due to the fact that they can produce better statistics. Is it legal to manipulate the educational system? The problem lies where the costs of improving the local education is too costly for the government; hence it is diverted to parents having to send their kids to private schools. Why is this happening? Where is all our tax dollars going to? It’s unknown.
