Like I already said, it doesn't mean that at all, some kids don't want to learn, it doesn't mean their teachear sucks. Some people are just plain dumb, that also is not the fault of their teachear or principal. This sounds like a crock to me. In turn, our kids have better teachers and these teachers are forced to do their job or they also get fired.

A certain amount of failure is expected and has been taken into consideration.

The taxpayers are getting better results for their bucks.

This is 100% positive for our children!
Until the school pays so many fines they can't afford to hire teachears at all. Then what? Doesn't sound positive to me.
