You think parents are upset at that, try putting their kids into the trades stream at age 12. The parents would go insane. Society is just different here. Bubble wrapped kids must to go the education route. Trades are shameful. Not only for the kid, but for the competitive parents too.
Azure: The disconnect isn't necessarily the school system or the government. This is what the parents want, they want that degree for their kids to put on the wall.
