School are spending more time teaching traditional subjects such as history. Some people think they should rather spend more time in teaching skills that can help students to find a job. To what extent do you agree and disagree?

It is an undeniable fact that the schools concentrate more on conventional subjects than modern ones. According to one pool of thoughts, the schools should be able to impart useful knowledge that aids in searching employment.

This

essay shall discuss

this

notion along with my opinion in forthcoming paragraphs. The issue of unemployment is faced by many people worldwide.

Therefore

, if students are taught the skills and information required for modern occupations, it will curb

this

issue.

For example

, if children who belong to families which live below the poverty line are taught some skills for plumbing or carpentry, it will be fruitful for them.

In addition

to

this

, conventional subjects like history are boring and students have to do rote learning just for the sake of clearing exams. These subjects are not found interesting at all which leads to stress due to increase in the burden.

For instance

, 70% of students are encountering stress due to lack of interest in

such

subjects.

However

, the proponents of traditional subjects believe that these subjects form the pillars of education. To prove

this

point, they argue that history helps to know the mistakes and lessons of the past that will aid in planning future. Pondering upon both the sides, I come to conclusion that pupils should be taught the skill set designed to provide jobs in future promisingly.

Besides

, the conventional subjects can be made optional, so that they can choose to learn due to interest and not under any kind of compulsion.
