In many countries, schools have severe problems with student behaviour. What do you think are the causes of this? What solutions can you suggest?
The behavioural differences in
students
have been a major problem for folks. In view of this
, there is an ongoing discussion about serious problems with student
attitudes
in several countries while also
suggesting solutions.This
essay would take an exhaustive look at the stated points in the paragraphs below while concluding with my own opinion.
Firstly
, the background
of each student
differs. Many students
in schools
today have inculcated different types of attitudes
which can be good or bad depending on their parents
, guardians and the company they keep. For example
, Joe Will a tutor at London High SchoolSchool carried out research about differences in students
' behaviour and he concluded that family background
depicts most students
' attitudes
in school
. Undoubtedly, one major issue that emanates bad behaviour for students
is their background
.
Secondly
, peer pressure is another root problem affecting student
attitudes
in school
. Most young students
in high schools
do not have a mind of their own and they are very much interested in trendy things as they indulge in things because a friend or classmate is doing them. For example
, My cousin picked up a nasty attitude
from high school
, he started talking abusively to everyone at home and I noticed most of his friends are very vulgar with their choice of words. Invariably, peer pressure is an underlying issue in student
attitude
.
Going forward, a solution I would proffer to curb this
menace is for parents
to monitor students
closely. Many parents
do not monitor their kids because they rely on schools
to do most of the job on their behalf because they paid institution fees. For example
, growing up was a bit difficult for myself and my siblings as kids, we pilfered from my mother's business money to purchase a video game which my mom found out and dealt severely with us and since then
we never did such
again. Parents
should always monitor their kids closely in order to help students
' attitudes
.
Another solution I would suggest is that schools
should look into tutoring courses related to attitude
. This
would help students
understand the consequences of their actions whenever they do something wrong. Illustratively, Mary Diaza Mexican teacher at Dallas High School
carried out research on students
about how to help improve students
' attitudes
and she concluded that schools
uphold new courses relating to basic life issues such
as attitude
, manners and others as it would help students
in all sectors of life. Invariably, schools
looking into upholding courses relating to the stated problems would help reduce the problem.
In conclusion, there are several problems that emanated from students
' attitudes
in schools
such
as family background
and peer pressure which are rooted deeper than our comprehension. However
, this
calls for concerted efforts of parents
, schools
, teachers and all relevant folks in students
to help amend ill attitude
patterns as well as make them understand the consequences when it is over-board. "The way you lay your bed, the way you lie on it".Submitted by simeonagbanoma on

Word Count
IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.
A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.
Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
