What i didn't understand is why the kids didn't try to help themselves. They all just brought each other down. The reason for the failure among the students is that the teacher was doing his best to teach the students but unlike the movies we saw there wasn't just one protagonist. Most of the students were protagonists and the teacher couldn't win over all of them.
The best example is with the student Souleymane. He was a smart kid but he was also trying to fit in and be cool. He refused to do the work and when he did do it, it was above where everyone thought it would be. None of the teachers liked him because he didn't try and brought the other students around him down too. That is why the teachers wanted to kick him out. All but the "lead teacher" or "savior."
Everyone has given up on these kids already and if these teachers give up on them too then they wont ever rise above the situations that they are in. The school and the teachers want to do what is best for them which is keep the class in line and kick out anyone who refuses to obey. They don't care all that much if they do the work or not. They just want to be able to show that the teachers were at least trying.
There isn't much that can be changed. The students don't care and the teachers don't care. There isn't much that can be improved. Even if the teachers cared, they couldn't make their entire class care. They are all the protagonists and because of that not much can get done.
When compared to SOF, there isn't really much of a resemblance. Our school is hands on and there is a small form of effort from every student. Students who don't care are usually asked to leave. It doesn't need to get physical like in The Class. Although we are lucky that our school isn't like it is in the movie. There is still a lot that can be done to improve our own situation.
