Five years of school?

 Please read my text https://learntalents.blogspot.com/2024/02/how-many-years-of-school.html

How to get a better idea of the situation? One ought to ask people who have own exoerience of school. Is there any clear idea of what kind of school was good for life, and what on the other hand was no longer motivating or folliwed, or was opposed. Tens of years ago in my school in Helsinki, it seemed to be so that the five first years of school were ok, but 6th grade and after that even teachers said as their estimate that school did not work like was the idea in having a school, and that something ought to be done to correct the school to much better, or maybe re-estimate how many years of school and find other alternatives, for example studies to a profession that one likes. If many teachers and adults share the same observations, it is easier to improve school.

"How many years of school 

 

(19.2.2024   Mysocial space to live in does not carry this subject, it just interests others with more social inclination. I ought to stop writing but feel forced to it. The reason seems to me having figured out easy ways to study kind of school taught things. But you should read my numerous earlier texts and not demand anything more from me.) 

When I was in school as a child and a teen, the first class was quite interesting and motivating since there were many new things for one's picture of the world and in the first autumn term I learned to read. The second class wasn't so much new things, so it wasn't as motivated and I wondered why there was school without so much new things. The third class got some higher goals from the number 3 being associated with religious wisdom, so it was quite ok and at least at some parts motivating. But on the fourth grade boys wanted engineering lije technical approach a lot and still more and more and it was much too elementary and boring so, without enough wisdom, so I thought such a serious drawback. The fifth year was thought by teachers to be the last thst makes sense to study if one has an ok head and seeks to behave wisely. So that would have been the natyral lenght of such a school. Then still the direction was toward following school taught things, which was the only motivation gor havkng a school. 

But in the sixth grade pupils were no longer interested. They started to be teens and school become an engibeering style rigid form in contradiction with thr pupils' own wusdom of life and their possibilitues of choosing their orofessilnal inclinatiln and future lufe as adults. And so as years passed the school become more and mire narrow, with a feeli g of liw quality, and it no longer was wusdom for lufe.
