Comparing your list to ours…

1. We’ve both listed competition — but we see it as a broader issue than just competition to get into elite schools and manifests even within elite schools
2. Maybe our 2nd point is better worded as not being learner-centric (and both teacher-centric and exam-centric are against it) is similar to your 2nd point. Although from a constructivist view we’d accept that the “life” each person is being prepared for is unique, whereas conventional answers to this issue are still based around a standardized model
3. Re. learning being joyless — we didn’t list this as an issue, because we consider it a consequence (of taking autonomy away from learners)
4. Re. teachers being indifferent followers — again a consequence of standardization, this time taking autonomy away from the teachers
5. Re. disparities — we didn’t list it in the 5 issues story but we are thinking about it a lot (e.g. in Education is a Right, not a Commodity); and as education isn’t only the school system, the disparities exist outside school as well
6. Re. politicization , etc — possibly the other side of it being owned at the top? Rather than having agile communities who create and steward their own learning experiences?
