Well, it's often dear to the hearts of those deprived of education in other parts of the world: it's a route out of poverty. In Britain, those excluded from education often feel like they've seriously missed out too. And sometimes those who were home schooled. And let's not forget that education is often an important election issue, so it matters a lot to many people.
Personally, I detested school, but I have a daughter with a very rare, mild cerebral palsy and, when she was four, we were told by an expert neurologist that she would never speak a proper sentence, never understand many things, never achieve many things regarded as normal, etc. But she has done and the bulk of the credit for that is owed to the expert and dedicated work of the teachers she has had. Some teachers give education a bad name - some of my former teachers, for example - but those who appreciate the difference that a good education can make are not a 'select few'.
THM: Good work with the societal-norm-breaking sprogs. (Changes of tone and style are not always due to more or less forethought though.)
