Education is not luxury, but a basic human right and as such should be free for everyone irrespective of personal wealth. Do you agree or disagree?

Many people believe that every single person should have access to

education

regardless their financial status, so it should be free of charge. I totally agree with

this

notion because free

education

contributes to equality among people and boosts economic growth. The

first

reason why I believe that

education

should be tuition-free is the fact that in

this

case people become more equal despite their social status.

For example

, free

education

in India erased social stratification among children from wealthy families and the youth from underprivileged families.

This

allowed people from different background to have equal chances to realise their potential, and,

therefore

, improved democracy in the country.

That is

why

education

should not be considered as a privilege and must be totally affordable for all people. Another essential argument for free

education

, in my opinion, is the economic growth it contributes to. It is obvious that countries with a high literacy rate normally have stronger economies, since their strength requires highly qualified specialists in different fields. Take Japan

for example

where a high number of educated people made the country one of the most developed in the world,

although

it does not have big deposits of natural resources.

This

means free

education

is justified by the boost of the country’s wealthy it provokes. In conclusion, I completely agree that all people around the world should be able to receive an

education

not only ones who can afford it.

This

is because it allows people to become equal and improves economics.

However

, making

education

free should not hurt its quality.
