Explanation
★When many students regularly fail, it is understood as the system's failure, so that is the answer.
★A few students failing may be due to individual causes.
★But when large numbers fail again and again, one common cause must lie in the system as a whole.
★Blaming only the teacher ignores the wider structure of curriculum, examination and support.
★Blaming only the textbooks singles out one part of that larger system.
★Blaming only the individual student cannot explain a pattern affecting many, so it is the system's failure.
