The situation is pretty suspicious since most learn at schools prior to attending Beacon, Haven, etc. Jaune said he never went to other schools so how can he "never be good enough" if he never properly trained? With seven other kids would his dad even have time to train him? Jaune doesn't strike me as the type to always do dangerous things so I think he really wanted to follow in the family footsteps for a long time. He has a gap of knowledge about Huntsmen that seems odd given his family of warriors/heroes. I don't buy into the ideas I've seen of him being too dumb or RT not thinking his backstory through.

I think there's a very good reason for Jaune not knowing so much. Maybe his parents are overprotective, whatever the reason I got the impression he was mostly isolated from people growing up. Maybe home schooled with a few family trips. Jaune arrives at Beacon socially awkward, eager to meet people/make friends, extremely náive and doesn't pick up on social cues.

Personally I've always thought it was linked to whatever reason Ozpin decided to allow Jaune to take the entrance exam. Because I don't buy for a moment that Ozpin didn't know Jaune faked his way in. I also don't believe Ozpin would risk anyone's life who didn't even have their aura unlocked. I completely agree with this theory it majes the most sense. And if Jaune's family from previous generations were great warriors and huntsmen I think Ozpin knew about them since he seems so knowledgeable and just knows things like with Ruby's silver eyes.

And I have been thinking about this for awhile... I think Jaune's family are descendants of the great King that stopped the great war from nany years ago in remnants lore.I mean look at that statue that is infront of the school in volume 1's opening and it appears again in the 3Rd season opening when the Grimm storm beacon.it seems to be important since it's there. I think the statue is of his great grandparents or ancestors.He seems to have a family legacy that was forgotten somehow.And I say forgotten because if his family were great warriors why does no one go"Wait your last name is Arc? As in..(insert name)  Arc?"

Also from the way Jaune was in volume 1 plus what he said to pyrrah in volume 3 about her being the only one who believed in him amd that his parents thought it'd be too tough for him and he could come home.i think his dad or mom never believed he had what it takes to be a warrior so they just gave up on teaching him or pushing him to be better.
