Is the average education level of people in the UK too low?
Looking at some of the questions and answers on here, I would say yes. That applies to both the content and the standard of spelling and grammar. I think that older people were better educated. They have a greater general knowledge and a higher standard of literacy. Everyone these days seems to get 10 GCSEs at A* grade, yet they cannot read or write correctly or express an opinion coherently. The exams have definitely been dumbed down, which serves absolutely no purpose.
