The Anime also suggests that the academy is actually useful now, unlike in Naruto's time. Remember how they were supposed to graduate on the clone jutsu, a jutsu so useless Sakura used it once and it was seen through instantly?

There's also the fact that Boruto had good teachers, unlike Naruto. Naruto could've been WAY more powerful if he'd actually been taught proper in the first place.
