Students, what is your fantasy education system?

A have a couple small thoughts. Not a full opinion yet.

These are basically applying to hs level.

1. Pay increase for teachers.
2. Grades that show comprehension. A better scale and getting rid of the pressure that grades can cause. At a correct scale a B student is a good student and C is an average. Sometime HS course seem skewed more toward B and A.
3. Classroom placement based on comprehension (Grades). If you can maintain comprehension being self-taught
4. Classroom placements when needed. If a student is in the wrong class for his/her need they shouldn't have to spend the a half year and get bad results.
5. Multiple styles and speeds of learning/teaching. At least three types including self-taught. But with the same tests.
6. Give the students everything they need to succeed or fail. I like open-book test because it doesn't mean it will be easier. I also like options of extended test period because staring at a paper for another 30 minutes doesn't mean you will do any better.
