Writing Feedback / Schools should focus on academic success and passing examinations. [4]

In modern education systems, there is an ongoing debate about the role of schools in teaching practical skills such as cooking, dressmaking and woodworking. While some people think that schools should only focus on academic success and passing exams, I suppose that it is essential to include these life skills in the curriculum.

On the one hand, proponents of the notion that schools should prioritize academic success argue that academic training is essential for students to excel in today's competitive world. They argue that time spent on subjects like cooking, sewing, and woodworking could be better utilized to master core subjects like math, science, and language arts. Furthermore, they argue that practical skills such as cooking or sewing can be easily learned from family members, thereby freeing up valuable class time for learning activities.

On the other hand, I disagree with the idea that schools should ignore teaching practical skills just for academic success. While academic achievements are certainly important, they are not the sole determinant of success in life.

First, teaching practical skills in schools promotes a well-rounded education that prepares students for the challenges they will face in the real world.
Second, not all students have access to family members who can teach them these practical skills. Schools therefore play a vital role in bridging this gap by providing a standardized curriculum that ensures all students have equal access to essential life skills , regardless of their background or family situation.

In conclusion, while academic success is certainly important, the practical skills necessary for personal growth and success in life should not be overlooked. I think schools should strive to strike a balance between academic success and practical skills to help students thrive academically, professionally and personally in an ever-changing world.
