Below I feature two 2 of several videos I featured in my report (Schooling is a Means to an End and Not an End In Itself) with regard to the massive difference between SCHOOLING and Education.
I strongly recommend you watch them with your child – THEN discuss the insights you gain from doing so!
Video 1: Why I Hate School But Love Education (> 8 m views)

Video 2: I Will Not Let Exam Results Decide My Fate
http://www.youtube.com/watch?
Both videos were authored by the same young man – and BOTH the nail on the head as to the massively misleading nature of the well known statement “EDUCATION IS THE KEY” as it relates to attending schools in most societies worldwide.
Little wonder that they both went viral VERY quickly…
Watch both videos and discover how WISE and RIGHT this young man, is about the SERIOUS DEFECTS in our schooling system!

In my paper, I noted that Sir Ken Robinson’s famous TEDx talk titled “How Schools Kill Creativity” has so far amassed over 49 million views and is widely regarded as having sparked a worldwide RETHINK of education –
” influencing a major change in the way schooling is done in many parts of the world. Sadly, Nigeria – as usual – has so far failed to pay attention to what the rest of the world has been doing in this regard.”
