About education problem

According to Yomiuri newspapers,40 percent of parents who have children going to elementary or junior high school think the new system that permits their children to go to school only 5 days in a week is not good.
This is a big problem, becaus about half parents don't agree with the gorvenmental policy on education.The gorvenment take emphasis on giving children much time which enable
them to think deeply about their life and started the system. But the Board of Education have no systematic education plan which can realize the gorvenment's aim. So most of children spend free time to do game at home or to go to private lesson school.

When I read this article,I coud nuderstand the feelings of the parents.I'm afraid of failing in children's memory and culculation ability and so on.
The gorvenment shoud make complete plan which enable children to think about how they will be able to live full of life in long run.Education is very important.I think We shoud think much about it.
By the way,what do you think about education? Please tell me your opinion.
