You have hit the nail right on the head.
For too long the CATC has been a dumping ground for the detritus of ATC. In recent years this has begun to reflect in the standard of the end product ie the student. It's not their fault that most are rubbish. It's the fault of the system that 'trained' them. The CATC is rotten from the top man down.
