As someone who was the product of a culture like this and understands the value and importance of education in modern society, I will never have children because I cannot put a child through what I went through; it's a meaningless treadmill of work that never really delivered any understanding or joy; just teacher-pleasing busy work. I learned far more once I got into a job than I ever did in school.
Valuing learning is not the same, maybe inversely related to, valuing achievement. One can value academic achievement in a way that minimizes learning, and one can value learning in a way that minimizes achievement. The children from such families probably follow similar but distinct life trajectories.
