School does exactly what it's supposed to do- force people into a mold best suited for the corporate world.

I don't think that school does a good job at the task of preparing people for the corporate world.
Analysing poems is for example a skill that only very few people will need in their working life.

The call for measurable results leads to focus on those thing that can be easily measured.
