Some people believe that unpaid community services should be a compulsory part of high school programmes (for example, working for a charity, improving the neighbourhood or teaching sports to younger children). To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Nowadays, there is a discussion if voluntary
community
services should part of the

, or if it should be optional. In
this
essay, I will discuss both sides of the argument and explain my support for the former view. One of the disadvantages of compulsory welfare work in high
school
is that students can develop a bad relationship with
this
kind of activity, precisely because it is obligatory.
This
is because people tend to refuse or dislike things that they are forced to do. As a consequence, they would do
community

school
, and after that

they will stop doing it.
However
, if
this
kind of work was compulsorily part of the syllabus, it would be much more practised, which would bring increased benefits to society, as they are fundamental in building a fairer
community
.
Furthermore
, all the students, without any exception, would have contact with
this
activity, knowing how it is important by developing their sense of responsibility and citizen duty.
As a result
, they will continue to practice it after their graduation in high
school
.
For instance
, there are a lot of examples of people who had gotten to know
community
services in
school
and after that, they kept doing it, like the famous Brazilian social worker called Dandara de Jesus. In conclusion,
although
mandatory unpaid
community
services can lead high
school
students to dislike
this
activity because they would not be able to refuse it in their syllabus, I believe
such
work should be a necessary component of their programmes, regarding all the benefits that
this
can bring for students and society.
