“Free College” seems to work just fine in Norway.

Combine it with having K-12 prepare you for most jobs, so not everyone thinks they need to go to college, and I think we have a winner.

It’s not a one or another thing.

That is much the system in Germany, which has its flaws, such as tracking children way too early (at the end of the 5th grade) and putting them into completely different school systems, which leads to a greater degree of social striation, but in general, the schools and universities turn out people ready to take up a profession and not just go out and struggle to find a job somewhere.
