The growing number of overweight people is putting strain on the health care system in an effort to deal with the health issues involved. Some people think that the best way to deal with this problem is to introduce more physical education lessons in the school curriculum. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Some people believe that the addition of more sports classes in school curriculum can solve the problem of increasing overweight among people. In my opinion, I completely agree with
this
notion because
this
approach can teach children to learn and follow a healthy lifestyle and ultimately will take off the burden of increasing number of overweight people from the health care sector. To embark on, a prominent benefit of introducing more sports lecture is that children are more likely to follow what is taught in the classroom.
Therefore
, if there will be more sports lecture, teachers can instill in children the habit of a healthy lifestyle. It has been proven that learning good eating habits at a younger stage remain with people throughout the life.
In addition
, a nowadays majority of both parents are working and they cannot monitor the eating habits of their children. So, a well informed child can follow a healthy routine and decide when and what to eat.
Moreover
, healthy eating habit of a person can
also
encourage people around to follow the same routine.
However
, if the problem of overweight is not controlled,
then
it can lead to obesity which will be worse to solve. It will not only need individual efforts, but
also
of government's to solve
this
issue of obesity. It will
also
pressurise government to spend more money on health care
instead
of other critical areas
such
as poverty and unemployment.
That is
why it is easy to prevent negative effects on health through children's food habits and activities rather than spending money on curing diseases. In conclusion, I believe that imparting physical education at the right age can help in reducing the number of overweight people.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
