Technology could render schools obsolete

In the near future it has been predicted by the head of one of the UK’s top private schools that children will be learning by a type of direct input. This will of course mean that schools as we know them today will become obsolete.

How this will develop is not yet known, but you can imagine all sorts of things happening and of course going wrong. Like what would happen if someone became a master criminal mind, would he be sentenced to having some of his intelligence being removed?

Also if there is a direct input, where the information is put into the brain directly, how would the levels of education be laid out, would certain people be destined to become doctors, while others would only get a basic level and have to work for minimum wage?
