Preparation for real life?

A new survey “reveals” that “Young people are not being adequately prepared for the world of work while they are at school”.
The survey found that the education system failed to equip young people with practical skills that are necessary for the world of work - skills like working in teams, communication skills and punctuality.
I think we should be fair on schools. How could they prepare young people for the world of work, when the similarities between the two are so few?
Unless, of course, you plan to work for Nike. In that case there’s a school in Wigan where you can learn quite a bit about being a good corporate employee
