Our Educational system is f*cked up and it is getting worse. Everyone is to blame without no exceptions: government, teachers, parents and students.
However, it will take hours of typing to explain and I do not feel like it.

The repeated experiments the Governments did during the last 20 years has resulted with people going in and out of universities and being just as ignorant as the day they went in. That is because the system is rotten from the bottom to the top and every one is blaming the other for the failure of it.
The Government blames the Opposition, the Opposition the Government and both the teachers. The teachers blame the parents and the parents the teachers and so and on.The fact that no one assumes the responsibility to get the problem out of the stalemate and do something that will get people educated enough to know what is happening instead of awarding diplomas of no face value and of questionable worth to get a decent job.
The fact that all parents want their children to be scientists of one sort or another makes the competition even more unfair for those that have the real ability and aptitude to achieve an academic career.

The school system in Greece is very bad for three reasons:
1. The primary purpose of school nowadays is to get into university through the national examinations (panellhnies). So school looses its vital role: to prepare people for the life in a community, and to become familiar with many aspects of the human civilization.
2. The government doesn't spend much for education.
3. Teachers in public schools don't give a damn for their students as they work permanently for the state and they get a hell of money from the private lessons they make.

I don't care what any of these nice people tell you. Primary and Secondary Education in Greece is in may ways a lot better than in the USA. You actually learn the basics and you
don't sit there wondering if someone behind you is going to
shoot you.

As long as Greek students (high / elementary school etc) need to pay for extra private schools (apart from their normal school) I believe something is wrong. But for sure it is good for the pockets of Greek teachers who make some extra money.

Studying is good. Getting better grades because you pay is bad.

According to the reports I have read, education in Europe is getting worse and worse, because politicians retract money (as a percentage of the budget) from social services and give it elsewhere. And this results in elitism in education, because wealthy people can afford good education and the poor cannot.

Don't fret. I won't claim my country is better. Because of the higher percentage of young people, it is actually worse. But in my experience politicians need public pressure. I wish you will raise your voices against any politician that undermines education and healthcare.
