I think this will go full circle (as the article indicates). Ultimately , the parents are the “customer” of education institutions as they send their kids there with the goal of them getting good grades. For now, getting a good grade regardless of whether you got it honestly or not should result in you getting a job and therefore the parents are happy.

But as soon as employers understand that the grades don’t mean anything, they will start prioritising students from places that are more strict e.g. through in person only exams etc.

Once this happens, parents, and therefore schools, will start to prioritise this more.

The sad part is that a generation of kids are going to pass through school and come out dumb and ill prepared for life while the systems corrects
