Writing Feedback / IELTS WRITTING TASK 2 "Art classes should not be a compulsory subject" [4]
Art classes, like painting and drawing, are bit as important as other subjects, so some people think that it should not be a compulsory subject at high school.
This issue of educating students remains controversial. Some people think that art classes are not necessary to be the main curriculum in high school. While I agree with this view, I believe that other factors are equally important.
On the one hand, there are some reasons that mainstream educational should not put art subject in the main curriculum. Firstly, there might be several students who may feel burdensome if they have no artistic talent. For instance, they get a low grade in art class, which might hold their total average grade down. It could be hard for them to apply for scholarships. Secondly, art classes consume too much of students' time. As I see art classes seem to be useless on the practical side because nowadays the entrance exams do not include art in the mandatory tests (math, literature, English,...). If students who have artistic talent, they will apply for the university of art and also have other exams to test their skill.
Nevertheless, I believe that school should provide a well-round education because there are some students needed to develop their artistic skill in classes. Over more, art classes not only boost creative thinking and also serving as a channel of stress relief for students. After having a stressful academic study, art classes will help students to stress, expand their interest and stimulating their hobbies in the study.
In conclusion, while art classes are a bit as important, I believe that art classes outweigh all other motivators.
