Re: [MTC Global] [The Last Big Debate of 2015] What's wrong with education for education's sake?

Very relevant questions.  It is the responsibility of all the educationists of this country to think seriously and respond.

Are schools and universities meant to be making sure their students have the skills to succeed in an increasingly competitive jobs market, or is the purpose of schooling slightly more open ended? Does it need to have a purpose at all, beyond instilling knowledge - and a passion to keep learning - into pupils?

Should learning be about education for education's sake? Or should the focus be employability?
