Right; so a kid who under-performs, who can effect the status of a teacher's employment, gets held back to do it all over again.
Yes, some children should be left behind. They could be doing the manual labour, that is being done by illegal labour. For some bizarre reason our societies seem to believe that even little Johnny, of the 95 IQ, should "have all the opportunities" of Adam, the kid who won multiple scholarships and has a 145 IQ. And if Johnny really is smart, but a lazy ass, then the same thing applies. Not everyone needs, or can manage, a higher education.
