The entire education system needs an overhaul. Wealthy families are able to buy an education for their children, regardless of ability or suitability. Less well-off students are reliant on loans and scholarships and may not be able to get the education they want. There is also too much emphasis placed on holding a degree or other higher levels of education when it isn't always relevant.

Yes providing the student keep up with a grade average
