Schools should teach children good behaviour and introduce ideas of "right" and "wrong". It should not only be left to parents. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Family and
school
both are the two institutions, which impart moral education and Virtuous qualities in
children
. Some people think that educational institutions should teach
children
what is ideal and how to behave with
others
whereas,
others
disagree and say
parents
should teach
children
everything. I think both are responsible for
this
but
parents
are more responsible than
school
.
Thus
, I do not agree with the statement.
To begin
with,
parents
are the
first
teacher who can teach their
children
everything.
Firstly
, they can spend more and more time with their
children
.
Secondly
, if
parents
behave with their
children
politely they can understand the value of a good attitude.
Thirdly
, by telling them if they act kindly with
others
they will get a reward in the future. Sometimes
parents
can teach their
children
by giving them an example of a good personality.
Finally
,
parents
can act as role models and
children
are they are copycats.
Last
but not the least,
parents
can motivate their
children
that they should behave excellently with
others
,
as a result
, everyone will love them.
For example
, since my childhood, my
parents
taught me how should I talk with my elders and younger and I should respect all.
On the contrary
,
schools
are very commercial they do not care about behaviours or anything.
Schools
just focus on studies and just ignore other matters.
On the other hand
, from
school
children
can learn many rules and regulations whereas, sometimes from
parents
children
cannot learn.
In addition
,
school
is the best place for learning splendid manner.
Moreover
, the
school
can organise group interaction from that
children
can learn how to deal with
others
, but at the home, it is not possible because most of the
parents
are service holders.
Schools
not only teach
children
education, but
also
they teach many activities which will be beneficial in the future. Even though,
schools
motivate
children
to appreciate
others
achievements. Nowadays,
parents
are busy with mobile phones and social media they do not think about their
children
's upbringing.
Thus
,
schools
are the best place to learn education and behaviours. To sum up, I can say both
school
and
parents
are responsible for teaching
children
manners and how to take right-wrong decisions, but
parents
are more responsible than
school
.
Therefore
, I strongly disagree with the statement that
school
should teach
children
to act well and what is ideal for
children
.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
