The role of education is to prepare children for the modern world. Schools should cut art and music out of the curriculum so that children can focus on useful subjects such as information technology. To what extent do you agree?

It is undoubtedly true that the prime aim of the educational system is preparing youngsters for the future.

While

it may seem like a practical idea to eliminate

Art

and

Music

as subjects from schools and teach other curriculums

such

as Information Technology

instead

, I completely disagree. First of all,

Art

can improve pupils’ creativity and enhance their memory.

This

is mainly because

Art

provokes children to utilize their imagination abilities frequently which solidates the neural network related to creativity in their brains.

Moreover

, most

Art

students have to visualize what they are going to work at first and

then

they work from their memories which strengthens their long-term memory. In 2009,

for instance

, a study was conducted on artists by Harvard University showed that artists have the same IQ level as Math scientists and less likely to have

In addition

,

music

can reduce

violence

among students.

This

is

due to

its sedating effect on pupils’ brains which makes them feel safe and unstressed. In Kenya,

for example

, when they introduced

music

as a separate subject to primary school students,

violence

among them dropped by 50%.

In contrast

, if educational authorities replaced

music

by

, pupils would be stressed for longer hours which can lead to

violence

; teaching

music

should be obligatory in all public and private schools.

To conclude

,

due to

their benefits

such

as improving students’ creativity and decreasing

violence

among pupils, I completely believe that

Art

and

Music

must be taught in all schools.
