Education, which refers to the transfer of indispensable skills and knowledge, is an essential aspect of a country's socio-economic planning as it generates a workforce competitive work that contributes significantly to economic growth. However, the question is still not whether the main objective of education is to provide access to a better life, and therefore to improve the living standards of individuals. At first glance, it is tempting to subscribe to the claim that the ultimate goal of education is to ensure a high standard of living, since good academic degrees enable us to acquire high incomes. However, after a deeper analysis of the complexity of the issue, we should go beyond the superficial value of such a statement and accept that essentially, education has other crucial functions in our society. The main argument for this myopic and erroneous claim is that education allows us to acquire academic qualifications, thereby improving our employment prospects. To put this into perspective, the current educational model, focused on academic activities, allows students to acquire a repository of domain-specific knowledge after graduating from university or college. This academic achievement not only indicates his abilities, but, more importantly, allows him to become a highly valued contributor to the economy. With real-world experience gained through internships now widely available in many countries, one will certainly come in handy when applying for well-paying jobs. This has the corollary of a high level of income which allows everyone to satisfy their material needs, thus considerably improving their standard of living.

Regardless, the primary goal of education is not to gain a competitive advantage in this knowledge economy in order to achieve a better standard of living. This school of thought goes against the essential nature of education, which aims to combat inequalities, stimulate creativity and instill a sense of belonging in society. In this regard, it can be argued that the current educational model does not fulfill its objective as it forces students to conform to their studies. A more sustainable model will create a non-threatening environment that inspires students to become responsible, creative and passionate members of society. Education must fit within the broad scope of human endeavor in ways that enable diverse groups to flourish. This education model will succeed beyond its prisoner's dream.
