To improve the job prospects, the secondary schools should spend more time teaching communication skills and business and spend less time on history. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Some people believe that, the high schools must invest more time teaching soft skills and must reduce their time towards

history

, to enable the students to find a job in their

future

. I completely agree with

this

idea, because of the increase in demand for soft skills in the world and the positive effects they have on young minds.

To begin

with, it is the duty of the educational institutions to prepare the students for their

future

roles. In recent days, communication skills have become crucial to land a job.

For example

, an individual, who has good knowledge will not be recruited, if he is unable to communicate himself.

Also

, at their workplace, to get a job done successfully, communicating with the other colleagues of highest significance.

Hence

, the secondary schools should focus on teaching these to their children.

Additionally

, learning the basic business principles will help the learners in the present and the

future

.

For example

, learning how to calculate the investments and returns will help the learners to handle their own finances in their

future

.

Also

,

this

helps them not to perceive business and finance skills as a difficult subject to pursue in their

future

. So, if taught at a young age, these skills can stay with them throughout their life.

However

, few people opine that children should learn more about their

history

. It is true to some extent that children need to know about their

history

and culture.

For instance

, they will not know about their traditional foods and festivals if they are not taught about them. In conclusion,

although

few people believe that educational institutions have to focus more on the traditional skills

such

as

history

, and pay less attention towards soft skills, it is irrefutable that the communication and business skills are the most important for their

future

jobs.

Hence

, the educational institutions must invest more time on soft skills, to ensure a better

future

for their learners.
