It is very easy to make schools competitive. Simply let those that do not want to be there leave. When you are there of your own free will like say doing a Phd or Masters or even undergraduate, you are there to learn and will want to learn. When you are tossed there and made to stay, you will resent it and make trouble and disrupt those that want to learn. School should be something that you WANT to go to as opposed to MADE to go to. It should be an option
