ok, premise: youth should be educated per Western standards

let's say that's a good premise.

Does that mean all implementations, whatever their details, are also good?

I don't think so. I don't think the logic follows.

> convince ourselves the oppression of others is for their own good, huh?

I' not sure I just did. You seem to have equated education to oppression by ignoring that not all education requires oppression. In fact, I think it's pretty telling that the crux of these matters (the oppression) is often a secret.
