IT IS QUITE LENGTHY BUT MOTIVATING.
Right now
There is a kid finishing parents' evening in a heated discussion
with his mother
Saying, why does he have to study subjects he will never ever
use in his life?
And she will look at him blanked eyed, stifle a sigh, think for
a second and then lie
She'll say something along the lines of:
"You know to get a good job, you need a good degree and
these subjects will help you get a degree, we never had this
opportunity when I was younger".
And he will reply:
"But you were young a long time ago, weren't you mum?"
And she won't respond although what he implies makes perfect
sense that societies needs would have changed since he was 16
But she will ignore him, grip his hand more sternly and drag
him to the car
What she doesn't know is that she didn't ignore him just to
shut him up
She didn't lie because they are just returning him from
parents' evening
And an argument in the hallway would look bad on her resume
She won't lie because she had just spent the last one hour
convincing a stern face teacher that she would ensure that her
child studies more at home
No! She will lie simply, because she does not know any better
herself
Although all her adult life, she has never used or applied
Pythagorean theorem, Pathetic fallacy, and does not know the
value of "X"
She will rely society to tell her child who has one of the
sharpest mind in the school, is hyperactive, unfocused, easily
distracted and wayward

Students!
How many equations, subjects and dates did you memorize just
before an exam never to use again?
How many "A" grades did you get, which were never asked
for when applying for a job?
How many times have you remembered something 5 minutes just
after the teacher said: "Stop writing"
Only to receive your results a month later to realize that you
were only 1 mark short of the top grade?
Does that mean remembering 5 minutes earlier would've made
you more qualified for a particular job?
Well, on an application form it would have
We all have different abilities, thought processes, experiences
and genes
So why is a class full of individuals tested by the same means?
So that means Cherrelle thinks she's dumb, because she
couldn't do a couple sums
And if this issue is not addressed properly, it then becomes a
self-fulfilling prophecy
Then every school has the audacity to have policy on equality
Huh, the irony!
Exams are society's methods of telling you what you're worth
But you can't let society tell you what you are
Cause this is the same society that tells you that abortion is
wrong, but then looks down on teenage parents!
The same society that sells products to promote nature hair,
looks and smooth complexion with the model on the box, half
photoshopped, and has fake lashes and hair extensions
With pastors that preach charity, but own private jets
Imams that preach against greed, but are all fat
Parents that say they want "educated kids" but constantly
marvel at how rich Richard Branson is
Governments, that preach peace, but endorse war, that say
they believe so much in the importance of higher education and
further learning
Then why increase tuition fees every single year?
I believed Miss Jefferson when she took me into the office,
said that my exams would be imperative to my success
Because we were taught to always follow when Miss Jefferson
led
Then I took Jefferson out of the equation and learned to think
for myself
I realized, we were always taught to follow when misled
Huh, the irony!
Test us with tests, but the finals are never final
Because they never prepare us for the biggest test which is
survival!
And what I suggest is fairly outlandish
So I don't expect everyone to understand this
Except for the kid that knows what it feels like to be worth no
more than that D or that A that you get on results day
And the ones whose best stories were never good enough for
your English teacher
Because apparently you missed out key literal techniques
Did not follow the class plan,
And the language was too "informal" for him to understand
But then he'd reference Hamlet and Macbeth
And you'd fight the urge to express your contempt by partially
clenching your fist with only your medius finger left protruding
in the middle of your hand
And asking if he was aware that Shakespeare was known as
the innovator of slang
Or the kid at the back of the class who thinks:
"Why am I studying something that doesn't fuel my drive?"
But when confronted with a maths problem his eyes come alive
So this one is for my generation,
the ones who found what they were looking for on Google,
the ones who followed their dreams on Twitter,
Pictured their future on Instagram, accepted destiny on
Facebook.
This one's for my "failures" and "dropouts", for my
unemployed graduates, my shop assistants, cleaners and
cashiers with bigger dreams,
My self-employed entrepreneurs, my world-changers and my
dream-chasers!
Cause the purpose of "Why I hate school, but love education"
was not to initiate a worldwide debate,
But to let them know that whether 72 or 88, 44 or 68,
We will not let exam results decide our fate
Peace.
