What do you think about this statement: "most schools don't like great teachers because they don't fit in"?

From Seth Godin:

“Great teachers are wonderful. They change lives. We need them. The problem is that most schools don’t like great teachers. They’re organized to stamp them out, bore them, bureaucratize them, and make them average.

If you want a job where it’s okay to follow the rules, don’t be surprised if you get a job where following the rules is all you get to do. If you want a job where the people who work for you do exactly what they’re told, don’t be surprised if your boss expects precisely the same thing from you.

If you want a job where you get to do more than follow instructions, don’t be surprised if you get asked to do things they never taught you in school. If you want a job where you take intellectual risks all day long, don’t be surprised if your insights get you promoted.”

What’s your opinion here?

If you agree with Godin’s view, how can we transform our school system?
