Some people say that school studies are not useful and most important things are learnt outside the school. Do you agree or disagree? Give your opinion and examples.

It has become universally acknowledged that there is no alternative way of educating a child to become a well-adjusted human being and an academy is considered the

first

place from where a child starts in acquiring his

first

knowledge.

However

, some people contend that there is no need for schooling because most of the important things can be learnt in other ways, whereas I am not supporting

this

notion for some obvious reasons that will be discussed in

this

essay.

To begin

with, an educational institution is no longer only the place of gaining knowledge, actually,it has become the platform for educating the children about the social and moral activities which are essential for their

further

career. Under the guidance of teachers, students become productive members of society.

For example

, a good understanding of moral education provided by teachers assists them to become kind for every member of society.

Secondly

, most of the classwork is inspired to do in a group which increases the power of communication among the students. They learn how to speak with people, how to deal with new problems and after all how to become a good human being.

Also

,educational institutions play an important role in developing the interpersonal skills of an individual.

For instance

, in Nigeria, schools usually arrange cultural programs, sports activities, inter-school competition (dancing, singing, debating) and so on which are really important for the physical development of the students.

On the other hand

, there are some materialistic peoples who believe the real world exists outside the school. They think, only getting trained about some specific jobs is enough for dealing with all problems.

For example

, if anyone wants to become a car mechanic, he will go to the training centre and become a mechanic.

This

type of people

also

adds that attending

such

kinds of cultural activities organized in institutes is just a waste of time. To conclude, after all the arguments and discussions, I would like to say that every child must send to the school to become a good human being because teachers are the

second

guardians who can make them prepared for their future.
