Right, education has nothing to do with how smart or dumb we are.

But this is precisely a failure of education. We don’t pay teachers well so there’s no incentive for good ones to stay.
Class sizes are too large so individuals can easily fall behind unnoticed. Or the opposite, talented kids get bored and aren’t challenged because the class can only move at the pace of the slowest individual.
Too much of education is steeped in tradition and no attempts are made to make the syllabus relevant to the real world.
Schooling isn’t tailored to the individual so you’re first to learn the way your teacher dictates when an alternative approach may suit you better.
