Doesn’t karma use punishments and rewards as teaching tools? Bad behavior will get you reincarnated as some lowly creature (punishment), and the ultimate goal is to reach nirvana (reward).
Getting held back at school or enrolled in a remedial or special ed program isn’t punishment. The lessons haven’t been learned, or objectives not achieved, so intervention is required, as I understand it. Also some schools of thought are that we choose our lessons before we are born, but I’m hazy on which sects or if that’s universal.
