One of the ideas Sir Ken Robinson had shared in his video.

I strongly believe schools kill creativity. Kids have too much pressure on themselves whether it’s from their parents, society or their school. Parents expect their children to have good grades while also being culturally involved. Society expects children to have a good social life while also being on the honour roll and receiving scholarships and schools expect children to be getting A's and B's. Now if you think about it spending so much time with all this pressure you won’t have enough time to pursue what you want to thus killing your creativity. As a high school student I know that you hardly receive any work that involves using your imagination. There are many things we can do to make school creative again. For example, Teachers shouldn’t prioritize school subjects over others. Math, English, art and drama should all be equally important resulting in students not constantly stressing and instead actually enjoying all classes. I don’t think they should make classes mandatory if students want to take a subject they should if they don’t want to they shouldn’t. Students shouldn’t be forced to take a class they don’t like. If we were given this option so many students would have more opportunity to take classes they enjoy. I found a lot of things interesting about this video. I liked the idea of how students shouldn't be categorized due to age but should actually be categorized due to knowledge. If some students excel in math they should all be put together not be separate cause of their age difference. Age shouldn't matter, knowledge should. If they were to put all the students no matter what age that excel in a subject together, It’ll make the class fun because they will all have a passion for that subject. They will also get to know each other better and have time to explore different people and things. These are my thoughts on this inspiring video.

I personally strongly agree with your thoughts because they are very TRUE. One of part I like was "Kids have too much pressure on themselves whether it’s from their parents, society or their school" people get distracted in all the other problems they have from inside or outside public/private matter. Parents expect us to do "GOOD" at school to get to university or college in other words as you can see our parents work really hard so our dreams can come true and this is why they expect us to do good and get A's and B's at school.
