Can our students all be geniouses?

I discovered this great video on education on YouTube while looking for the cartoon that follows. I've seen others by this group RSA. It's a look at education - why, for whom, etc. - and creativity. Are we educating creativity out of our students?



Here's the cartoon I saw on Facebook. I can't figure out what the original is.

 

We're theoretically supposed to be providing diversified teaching, but it's hard with a classroom filled to the window-sills. But politicians evidently don't want students to be creative.
