This is something close to home for me, I have 3 boys, the education system doesn't seem to cater to a lot of boys.

I agree; it would fix a bunch of issues.

But it also needs to be competitive; basically only the best get the privilege of teaching the next generation. The qualifications for teachers need to be much higher than they are now; high salary and high entry requirements, with teacher aids to help that require a lower (same as today) qualifications. Similar to the medical system model where there is a surgeon with a bunch of highly qualified helpers.
