This is usually the case in the majority if not all government-managed sectors. Government tends to add many more layers of middle-men.

Surely enough countries also pay teachers via the government for this not to be a unique problem for us.

My company adds middle-men and they suck too.

The problem may be middle-men and not private vs public.

That’s a good point. In the Education sector, I believe there are many private alternatives that are gaining traction and I suspect they are the disruption the public sector is looking for and will adopt eventually. Just like how many older companies entrenched in middle management have been getting disrupted.
