School failure in Spain

Year after year, Spain remains in the last positions of the PISA report. We have an education system that doesn't work. What things do exactly fail?
Finland is one of the countries that get top marks. The structure of the Spanish education is very different than the Finnish structure.
For example: the Finnish teachers are more qualified than Spanish teachers, the number of students per class is very high compared to there.
One thing that attracts attention: is that children begin that at six years old. There are more components that make them succeed. What is exactly the changes that should be made?
What are the most important rules?
  • Pre-school education: They are set with a lot of rules. This prevents the child to do his natural game activity and experience alone. Children are separated from their parents very early.
  • Primary school: The students memorize things and they don't understand it. The tests are done to put exactly what is in the books and they don't value the child's creativity. They have a lot of homework.
  • Secondary school: They devote many hours to learn things that aren't necessary. They do not have free time. And the students don't have the ability of critical thinking.
I hope someday the sistem can be changed. But also we don't have to forget that there are teachers who do their work well and there are students who get good grades and are critical.
