Yes, indeed. So many schools were set up with religious intentions and often with a desire to raise people out of poverty. I think they were highjacked.

Hijacked to keep people in darkness and poverty.
I think so. I was thinking to say hijacked [ps thanks for telling me how to spell it!] to keep people in poverty and I couldn't quite get there. There's still a part of me that thinks education raises you out of poverty.
Then I think of Sugata Mitra's work and I remember it is a mirage. People can raise themselves!
