Schools concentrate far too much on traditional subjects which do not adequately prepare students for the realistic demands of the modern working world. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

✨ Do you want to improve your IELTS writing?
At present,
schools
give more emphasis on teaching traditional
knowledge
rather than teaching their
students
practical
knowledge
which they will need in later
life
. Traditional
subjects
  do not come in handy when it is time for the modern working world.
This
essay completely agrees with the above statement because traditional
subjects
do not teach us about the realistic demands of the modern world.
Firstly
, traditional
subjects
like maths, physics, and chemistry help us to educate and enhance our 
knowledge
but it does not help us to know the basic needs of the modern world. It does not teach us how to save money, how to pay the bills or how to be a good citizen.
Although
schools
concentrate more on teaching these traditional
subjects
to their
students
it does not teach them how to lead a proper
life
.
For example
, a bright student may not be able to do good in
life
due to
a lack of practical
knowledge
. He may have huge
knowledge
about traditional
subjects
but he will not be able to succeed in
life
if he does not have practical
knowledge
.
Moreover
, one who has

As a result
, they fall behind in the future and could not succeed.
