Some people argue that it is good for children to stay away from their families and go to a boarding school. Other suggest that children live with their families and attend a day school. What is your opinion?

There are two main types of
schools
which are boarding
schools
and
day
schools
. Both of these have their own advantages and disadvantages which I will discuss. I will
also
give my opinion on which type of academy is better. Boarding
schools
are
schools
where
students
reside during the semester.
This
has the advantage that the
parents
are less worried than
parents
of
students
in
day
schools
.
Parents
of
students
in boarding
school
can and will still be worried about their kids as they won't see their child but because the campus provides needs for kids
such
as food, medicine and shelter
parents
are less worried when it comes to financial problems.
For
instance
, a
student
and his family can save some money by getting the
student
to attend a boarding
school
. The disadvantage is that
students
will probably have a tight schedule with academic classes at
school
even though the remaining can be used at the
student
's discretion.
Students
will need to manage their time socialising with
school
friends, doing homework, taking some personal time and staying in touch with friends and family back home.
For
instance
, a
student
can do terribly on an exam because of the stress received by having to FaceTime their
parents
.
Day
schools
are
schools
open for instruction on weekdays only, usually from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. The advantage is that there is effective and rapid response to emergencies for
students
that attend
day
schools
. It is natural to human beings that in life, there must be some occasions of unprepared happenings.
For
instance
, if a
student
can accidentally crack his head open,
day
schools
would be able to treat the wound faster than boarding
schools
. The disadvantage,
however
, is that
day
schools
tend to have more children per class than boarding
schools
and
therefore
individual attention to a
student
becomes difficult.
For
instance
, teachers have to give an equal amount of attention to each
student
. In conclusion, there are many arguments for why it is good and bad to be in each
school
but
day
schools
have stronger arguments for themselves.
