I pay taxes so my children can learn this stuff at school. I work so I can pay taxes. There is something seriously wrong with the education system if parents are having to use family time and free time to get their heads around this.

Why is it so important to know it all ?

The pressure to know all this stuff they might never ever need again is driving many kids out of school and into their bedrooms. Just my point of view.

Hi Rosie, to be honest with you, I completely agree. The education system has not evolved for decades and thus students are still taught in a manner that aims to prepare them for factory labour. It largely limits creativity and often puts students into limiting and damaging boxes. Services like ours shouldn't have to exist however in our opinion they do and that's why we are truly committed to helping teenagers to feel confident, sustain and improve their wellbeing and get in and out of the system with the grades that they need.

I appreciate you engaging with my writing.

Thanks,

Joel
