clearly not an expert in pedagogy, and perhaps a neuron misfire...
The Peter Principle...
observes that people in a hierarchy tend to rise to their "maximum level of incompetence": employees are promoted based on their success in previous jobs until they reach a level at which they are no longer competent
I wonder whether that applies to education too. Children do well at school; thrive at further education, then when they reach higher education, it is beyond their competence. So they struggle and and eventually fall out.
I KNOW this is a fantastically complex topic spanning so many dimensions. But I've never heard this hypothesis, yet it seems to make sense.
Perhaps this is a known concept that I have never heard of; perhaps it's known, but unacceptable to talk about so I haven't heard it. Perhaps I'm completely wrong... :)
Drop out is a major problem.
Genuinely curious!
