There are two fundamental tasks it should help us with : working and sustaining good relationships.In order to address these needs, a future national curriculum might specify that the following subjects be studied. Firstly, capitalism. A conspiracy of silence exists around the economic system we live within. We find it hard to change its bad sides or defend its strengths because we simply don’t fully understand how it works. A subject like maths would be geared to teach its number one utility for 99% of the population. Second is dealing with money. Such classes would demystify the global economy by teaching students the importance of the means of production and how profits are made. The role of cashflow, HR leadership, marketing and competition would also be studied. In a perfect school system you’d also then study a really big second subject: yourself. Young students would be introduced to the idea that we humans are extremely prone to misunderstanding ourselves. They would be taken through the concepts of delusion, defensiveness, projection and denial in everyday life. Individual tutors would be on hand to help students towards personality maps with particular attention paid to their neurosis and fears. Doing this ensure that students learn a lot about how complex they truly are and what types of people they would be best suited to hang out with. A crucial unit would be devoted to career self-knowledge. What job are you best suited to? Students would spend three hours a week exploring what they might do with their futures. Then one would study relationships. Being intensely aware of the social and individual cost of every unhappy relationship. An ideal education system would emphasize the acquisition of skills that help people to live better together.There would be units on kindness and forgiveness as well as on anxiety-reduction techniques. In this educational utopia it wouldn’t only be children who go to school but adults as well. Schooling would be for life, and education wouldn’t just be taking place in classrooms, media and the arts would be made to maximize their teaching potential and help to teach people what they actually need to learn.
