Promoting a child who isn't ready just passes the problem on to the teacher at the next grade level, who then has less time to spend on the more qualified kids.
It's a shitty problem.
My wife deals with it every day. The school system gets these projections done on all of her kids that show their likelihood of passing EOG based on prior tests, grades, etc. If you add up all the percentages of the 60 kids she teaches (3 classes) it's something criminally low. I don't want to misquote it but I think it's something like a 30% pass rate. And the school system is basically like, Good luck, Teach!
