As the workplace evolves, some people suggest that schools should only teach practical skills, while others believe that academic knowledge should be taught as well. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

For the

in school.

is important for the educational process.

time I have to object that practical

skills

are extremely based on

theory

. There is an opinion that pupils should not waste time on

theory

and move straight to practice. The majority of

students

after graduation have different theoretical

skills

such

as algebra, literature and languages.

However

, they lack

skills

for repairing cars, changing homes or cooking meals. Many

skills

taught in schools are not useful for life and could eventually fade from memory. Albeit practical

skills

will be fresh and stay in mind for a long time.

Nevertheless

, there are some people who tend to believe that practical

skills

are less important and could be taught at home.

For instance

, it is possible to learn how to cook meals or repair cars and do not require special preparation.

In addition

, almost all practical

skills

are based on

theory

and it is impossible to repair cars if there is no knowledge about them. To conclude, practical

skills

are important for learners but should not be distinguished from school goals and

theory

also

must be taught as well, because without it

students

could be not well prepared and self-developed for forthcoming challenges.
