Some people say that schools do not do enough to teach young people about health. Do you agree or disagree?

As the education system has advanced over the

last

few years, the demands of the public from schools are increasing tremendously, and

consequently

, the performance of schools related to

health

is in question by many. Though there might be a few exceptions, I am in consummate accord with the notion that schools are

underperforming

in

this

regard. Starting with what parents tend to expect from schools is to offer more than just formal education on the topic of

health

. In their view workshops, symposium and fun activities can be organised that may help students learn practical ways to improve their

health

. Consider the example: if students are given a lesson on hand-washing, there will be no doubt a reduction in the transmission of feco-oral germs, including typhoid. These sessions are likely to benefit students a lot in improving personal hygiene and overall well-being.

Hence

, in my view schools must include

such

practical aspects in their curriculum.

Additionally

, people seem to doubt that schools spend enough on the aspect of physical training which is essential for being fit. Be it sports facilities or expert trainers, many schools are short of

them

an instance or single occasion for some event

time

. As

students

the students

would not know how to keep fit, they are likely to suffer persistent

health

issues throughout their life. Because of

this

would suggest that a hefty sum should be spent on these facilities so that students are guided towards a healthy lifestyle. It can be concluded that the public does not find the current efforts of the school system enough to promote

health

among its pupils. If schools provide practical lessons and fitness related facilities, that will definitely cater to the

health

needs of its students.
