Some people think that because some children find some subjects such as mathematics and philosophy difficult, they ought to be optional instead of compulsory. To what extent do you agree?
Education has been evolving by leaps and bounds and providing children with new avenues while keeping students updated with the relevant skills and mindset.
Therefore
, a fair amount of people believe, challenging subjects Linking Words
such
as mathematics and philosophy should be an optional choice in schools. I do not completely accord with it because these lessons have its values in shaping one future's skill and morals.
To embark on, there are multiple reason why these subjects are taught to every child. Linking Words

However

To conclude, mathematics and philosophy are challenging for some, Linking Words
however
, in my opinion, enforcing all students to take these classes will teach at least a basic knowledge and to some, they will carry forward its values in their life. Given Linking Words
this
situation, I think schools need to assess and observe every of its student and aware of what they need essentially.Linking Words
