Students should be taught academic knowledge so that they can pass exams, and skills such as cooking or dressing should not be taught. To what extent do you agree/disagree?
Education plays a crucial role in the development of an individual as well as a society. Some people believe that schools should provide academic subjects to pass examinations rather than learn soft skills
such
as dressing and cooking. In my opinion, it is only partly reasonable because both are the same important in educating the young generation.
On the one hand, there are two main reasons why academic knowledge is vital for students. Linking Words
Firstly
, people having academic qualifications will have better job opportunities, and they are able to earn Linking Words
high
salaries than those with fewer degrees; Suggestion
higher
therefore
, schools prioritize academic knowledge to prepare important exams like high school graduation and university entrance tests. In Linking Words
this
way, students can be admitted to top-tier universities because it is beneficial for their career path. Linking Words
Secondly
, academic courses help students to develop some important skills Linking Words
such
as problem-solving, logical thinking, and communication skills, so students can prepare essential skills to apply for their future jobs, which makes them adapt to work easily.

On the other hand
, I believe that practical subjects Linking Words
such
as dressing and cooking are necessary for students. The Linking Words
first
advantage is that these subjects teach them soft skills, which helps them to take care of themselves without their parent's assistance. Linking Words
Besides
, many students do not housework like cooking and cleaning because their parents pamper their children or force them to focus on homework. Linking Words
Therefore
, survival skills in the school curriculum will be vital for students in building an independent personality when they grow up.
In conclusion, both academic knowledge and daily skills are important for students. I think that schools should combine both aspects of their curriculum.Linking Words
