Or teach that cheating is just lateral problem solving and not to get caught. When school is over at age 18-22 that skill will be valuable and no longer amoral... If it ever was.

But skills actually taught in classes are more concretely valuable. The ability to covertly sneak under vigilant systems (i.e. successfully cheat on a test) is not going to be useful when it comes to real-world application (i.e. designing motors).

Yes because all those "lateral problem solving" people later in life are doing such a bang up job and not fucking over millions. Why do you think things like the bank crisis a few years ago happen? because people try to cheat the system

We have less holidays than you, we only get 12 weeks of holidays for the whole year.

Twelve weeks as in three months? Yeah, that's the amount of vacation time we get in the summer, though we get about four extra weeks throughout the year.

When a student cheats on an exam, it shows that the school values grades more than the student values learning. -Neil DeGrasse Tyson

Honestly, besides parents, teachers are the biggest stressors of good grades. A lot of them teach you to simply complete the work and get good grades as opposed to actually learning some skills. To a lot of them, they value grades the students make higher than the student's well-being or happiness. It sucks, but it's true. Of course, there are still plenty of awesome teachers who try to simply help you learn as opposed to help you complete an assignment.
