I'm not starting a gay argument, but he definitely talks about the heirarchichal nature of education and the industrial reasons behind it, that's not the same as saying that education is one-size-fits-all; he's drawing a parallel between changing economy in the face of new ecological/ financial paradigms and the current skew of education towards literature, maths, the sciences changing towards the creative.
