School systems. Are we just another brick in the wall?

Discipline in the school classroom.

The following video could be used as a starting point in a discussion about school systems and discipline within them.

After viewing the video clip we could ask students questions such as:

  • How would you explain the phrase “We don’t need no education?”
  • What are the pupils wearing? How are the teachers behaving towards them?
  • What is the lesson like? Is it based on initiative or repetition?
  1. What do the bricks and the wall stand for? What happens in the end and why?
  2. How would you describe the Greek educational system?
