A pointless life had in a pointless world

I was always bullied and ostracised not to mention I'm still scarred by some horrific things teachers did and said to me.
Children and young people need an opportunity to learn obviously but I don't think it needs to take place in the authoritarian school system that's currently in place where teachers have too much power.
This is from a UK perspective of course but I think teachers need a way stricter form of conduct where they have to actually be mindful of the things they do and say.
There are too many bigoted and ignorant teachers that are insensitive to cultural backgrounds, sexuality, mental health issues or neurodivergency.
Speaking about a pupils personal appearance or making comments on their level of intelligence shouldn't be allowed at all in any context.
You also shouldn't be allowed to scream at students as if they're your children either, especially not to the point where you make them cry. It's abuse.
The whole system needs to be scrapped and rebuilt.
