Hmmm, let's see.

The history of education, like other history, extends at least as far back as the first written records recovered from ancient civilizations. Historical studies have included virtually every nation.

The earliest known formal school was developed in Egypt's Middle Kingdom under the direction of Kheti, treasurer to Mentuhotep II (2061-2010 BC)

Username checks out.

Seriously, I get it, education systems are often extremely flawed, but education has a long and storied history of being the root of all of humanity's progress.

We need to do better for our children, but that doesn't include fundamentally incorrect extremes like "formal schooling is bad".
