r/AntiSchooling

my teacher literally told me to write a 600 word essay just because i talked once like why are teachers always overreacting she is such a sociopath like wtf did i do?

i want it to be heavilly reformed and made so students can actually learn what they want to learn instead of having to sit in classrooms and think about suicide all day

Hi, So as we all know, schools purpose is to indoctrinate you to put up with modern day work culture, Well after I’m done with school, instead of going straight to getting a job, I’m going to instead start my own business, I want to do car detailing, cleaning the interior of people’s cars and getting paid for it, I think this is something I can do as I have cleaned my mothers car before. To any of you guys out there thinking the system is treating you badly, it gets better I promise, do what makes you happy, don’t let a teacher tell you if your going to fail or not.

PS: you know how teachers complain about getting low pay? Well, a teacher at my school drives a fucking Tesla, and I don’t even go to a private school.

I’m in 10 grade high school about to go to 11 and I noticed they don’t teach us anything of what we really need the only reason I learned any of it was my AV tech teacher because we had a bunch of extra time

I am making a school project about the educational system and its flaws. I’m looking for personal opinions on what people think are the biggest problems with schools, the school system, and the way we approach learning. What do you think the main flaws are, and how can they affect a person?
I’m not referring to student-related issues such as smoking, vaping, or bullying.
(Mostly Europe if possible)

What was your biggest WTF moment as you grew up based on how the world was taught to you in grade school?

My daughter had had problems with this school for a while. She has been labeled the bad kid. Anytime something happens and my kid is there its automatically her fault even if she did nothing wrong. Apparently the other day the principles tried to say she was jumping seats on the bus. She claims to me she was not. Fast forward to last Friday she did get off the bus calling the bus driver a bitch. I know that is wrong she knows thats wrong I told her to apologize when she got to school on Monday and before I could really talk to her about what happened the school called and said she was suspended off the bus for the last 2 weeks of school. Yes she should have some consequences for what she said. Fast forward to monday I took her to the school and asked to talk to the principles because there is no way I can get her back and forth to school. I dont have any money for gas and my car might break down in the car rider line. When I told them this they talked to me like a five year old and told me my child was also jumping seats (she was not) so the could not change the punishment. I suggest maybe a few days off the bus or I could just bring her the days that they had testing. Sound reasonable to me. They acted as if I wasn't even there like they mad up there mind before I walked in. I got upset with them because what am I supposed to do in that situation its like they just didnt want to listen and where very unsympathetic. And because I got loud and stood up for my child they are trying to stop me from goin to my child's graduation. At this point I am done with this school. I would like some advice if I was in the wrong. Mind you I have never ever gotten loud like that ever. I just dont know what to do at this point. My daughter is also a straight A student and does struggle with some mental health issues. What should I do?

Most college students don’t actually hate studying they hate studying things they know won’t help them 5 years later.

Also, attendance rules treat adults like school kids.

What’s your “this might get me downvoted” college opinion?

I genuinely don’t know what to do and feel completely stuck right now.

I just finished my sophomore year, and I recently found out I was required to complete a specific MIS course within my first four semesters or I’d have to change my major. The problem is that no advisor ever told me this. It also wasn’t a prerequisite for any of my other classes, so there was never any indication there was a strict deadline tied to it.

Now I’m suddenly being billed around $6k for summer tuition because I have to take the course immediately to stay in my program. I asked if there was any kind of appeal process since I was never informed about this requirement, but so far I haven’t really gotten answers.

I honestly feel blindsided. I can’t just afford an unexpected $6,000 bill, and now I’m stressed trying to figure out how I’m supposed to stay in my major while also supporting myself.

Has anyone dealt with something like this before? Is there anyone specific at a university I should be contacting besides advisors/financial aid? Any advice would seriously help.

How the fuck do parents put up with putting their sons and daughters to school???

I get for some places it's mandatory even if the parents don't want them to go but there is still a way out (stuff like telling the goverment it's homeschooling)

And the thing that pisses me off the most is when the parents HAVE the option to drop them out and they STILL don't do it.

What kind of love is this?

Seeing their child suffer?

For.. what???

It's never talked about how school is full of (mostly) easy and basic stuffs that you could learn from scrolling on tiktok videos. Such examples are historical figures, eras, definitions, simple ethics, and so forth. There was a time where i was forced to sit through a lecture about the definition of ''Jargon'' and using context clues for TWO hours. Any rational individual can take just a minute or two to learn everything taught within those two hours. To top it off my classmates were still troubled with the topic at hand. Now, i'm not one to boast, i am naturally a slow learner myself. But definitions of a term are elementary stuffs, everyone can agree on that. It is so funny and almost enraging how there are actual people being extremely competitive at this level of academics and refer to themselves as ''smart'' (the irony!). Now this is just my personal experience (Initial point still stands), but i'm sure others have similar experiences as well.

Hi so I just joined reddit because I recently found out that my entire public school system was leaked Canvas hackers that did the breach through tiktok.

I know tiktok isnt a trusted source but it provided a link and evidence to it and they actually leaked

Do you guys know what should I do?

Like should I email my County about this or tell a counselor?

Idk what to do, I'm a high schoolers thats kinda scared right now.

My parents have emailed my County's support email but they have not replied in 8 hours.

i dropped out of school at grade 11, because of learning difficulties, i failed maths in high school and got an E every time, which is the australian version of getting an F. i only knew my multiplication until now, 11 years of my life wasted.. but i just learned how to answer arithmatic math in 60 seconds from a youtube short... 2²+5⁵=29

it is so simple, but school is too useless to even teach me that in the timespan of 3 years, not including the other years where i wasnt actually learning that level of math. 60 SECONDS!
