It was set up when we went from agrarian to industrial and never caught up. It is not ready the the post-induatrial world for the average person. Those who have well- educated or highly-educated parents overcome, if the parents are critical thinkers. Otherwise it creates slaves to a bygone system. And a national babysitter service so the slaves can slave.
Whether or not it was ever a good idea, you're right that it's clearly not adapted for the modern world.
Parents will resist giving it up, though, because it is the national babysitting service.
