How would you change the education system?

One thing that should be done is teach how things like math and physics as how they will actualy be used in said career such as veternary medicine. "Fluffums is so many pounds how much medicine should Fluffums receive to treat her infection" type things.

Ass kissing courses such as literature, public speaking and phycology should be done away with unless they are actualy going to be used in such career. Real phycology not Fruedian BS, might be a good idea for a potential MD or teacher. But why is it required for a vet student? Sure it's supposedly needed to interact with the pet owners but what if you don't plan to go into private practice and if they truely care about their pet they will be more concerned with a vet's ability to treat their pet, not their ability to schmoose and ass kiss. Literature has no relivance what so ever. Grammar may have relavance but not literature. But isn't grammer taught in elementry through high school? Most college courses are just repeats in what you have already learned. If I could really have my way, ALL kids would be homeschooled, colleges would be thing of the past and we would go straight to graduate school such as med or vet school. Or at least ass kissing courses would be done away with. I don't care what they say, for a vet student, literature IS an ass kissing requirement. "Have so many preresaquittes in this because we say so."

above the Age of adolescence, the girls and guys should be in separate classroom., but they should meet for lunch, breaks,ETC.

The purpose of the class is to teach, not to become a dating service.

nice one

First things first, schools should be 'property' of the government and not be private, or state funded. Secondly the purpose of schools should be to teach children and nothing else (I have the strange feeling that there is also some goal of filling the managers pockets with money, and to have managers to change the way things are organised).

Thirdly, about subjects/courses there should be quite a few changes, all with the goal to improve the way children could show there intellect and passions.
Currently it's quite simple, in years 1-3 (13-15 years old) the program is for almost everyone on the same level of education the same. and for years 4-6 (16-18 years old) you have to chose a 'packet' of subjects that you will follow along side with quite a few mandatory subjects. Subjects/Courses will last a whole year or more (an example is maths or english)

There should be less subjects mandatory (currently 4 languages of which 3 foreign, and quite a lot of smaller subjects no beta subject, in your last 3 years out of 6). There should be more options how you should be tested, e.g. there is not only a written test possibility at the end of the course but you could also chose for an oral exam or to write an essay. Moreover there should be opportunities to take a 'master classes'.

But again most importantly is that they change there view from their wallet to the children, as that is IMO the only thing they are looking at at the moment. They make a lot of decisions that are not good for the children.
