Less of it. Stricter discipline allowed from teachers, more parental involvement in the child's education and home lives. Also, dress codes should be mandatory in all schools like they were years and years ago. I had a much better education growing up with a dress code--it puts every child on an even playing field, if you will. No competition for new/better clothing, and no worries about kids being at school in provocative or inappropriate clothing. I would like to see people be held accountable. Both parents and teachers. We have moved to a systems where tests are how the education system is judged.
Instead I think there needs to be parent involvement. I think a couple parent teacher conferences are not enough. Parents need to know what their children are learning and be a part of the school community.
Also, teachers should have the freedom to teach beyond the test. Their should be time for discovery and exploration. They should also be able to have control of the class room.
I think all of these areas would help improve the communication between families and faculty. I also believe these changes would help hold the children accountable for their own education. After all, that's why they go to school right? get rid of the discipline problem kids are they disrupt the learning for the others and drain the system
dont force so much academincs on those that cannot handle it
bring back vocational studies...this may help to resolve my first two points. not everyone is into the academics. we need to excite them ito other fields as well
