Intulexia industrial model of education is a form of social engineering that has created many problems in our world. It does not fit with the natural way children actually learn. It does not reward creativity, innovation, independence, compassion, intuition, confidence, cooperation and many other essential character strengths, instead fostering social dysfunction, alienation and (for countless people over the last hundred years) a sense of personal failure and incompetence.

In a somewhat subversive way, the love of learning and natural curiosity that children bring into this world is being re-programmed, so that they can be taught to work hard in order to please others, and to do things for utilitarian reasons, to obtain external rewards and status, rather than intrinsic happiness…

With it’s authoritarian emphasis on compliance, competition and testing the factory model is obsolete, undemocratic and de-humanising. It’s a relic of our past, that needs to be dismantled and retired as we move into the 21st century."~Christopher Chase
