Many people believe that cooking is an essential life skill and should be taught to boys and girls in schools. Others disagree and believe it is a waste of school time. To what extent do you agree?

A large portion of individuals

hold

the opinion that, learning how to cook is an imperative quality to

,

therefore

, cooking classes should be a part of

school curriculums

On the contrary

this

belief and think that these classes would be a waste of valuable teaching time. I firmly

disagree

with

this

opinion.

Firstly

, providing

food

lessons in primary education allows children to grow up and be independent, so if anything, it is a great way to spend time in

school

.

This

is because preparing one's own lunch or dinner is an important skill to have. By teaching

this

from a young age, kids are able to depend on themselves and feed themselves.

In addition

to

this

, as they grow older they are able to save

alot

Suggestion

a lot

of money that would be spent on take out, due to the fact that home cooked meals are much more affordable and healthier.

For example

, a meal at a fast

food

place like KFC would cost around 6 pounds, whereas by teaching children how to cook, they can spend those 6 pounds on ingredients like a kg of rice and chicken which would collectively cost 3 pounds.

Secondly

,

school

is not only a place to learn academic subjects like Maths and Physics.

For instance

, sports are

also

taught in schools and are not considered to be a 'waste of time', in fact, sports lessons are seen as a good way to release energy and stay healthy. Cooking class's should be given the same level of importance because they

healthier lifestyles and expand skill sets.

Furthermore

, cooking class's can be incorporated

in

into

other subjects

such

as biology and chemistry, as

food

is closely related to these subjects and can be a fun creative way to learn.

For instance

, in primary

was taught about chemical boiling points by cooking rice in water and measuring its temperature. In conclusion, being able to make your own

is a quality that should be
