Some people believe that unpaid community service should be a compulsory part of high school programs (for example working for a charity, improving the neighborhood or teaching sports to younger children). To what extent do you agree or disagree whit this statement?

In recent years, a debate regarding possible

activities has emerged.

In particular

, some people argue that, especially in high school programs, some

community

work should be included. I generally agree with

this

proposal only if strict rules, that do not allow exploitation of

's activity, are put in place. In

this

essay, a brief explanation regarding the matter will be given. It is undoubtedly true that getting involved in some social

could be beneficial for

. In fact, nowadays pupils often end school without having any sort of real-life experience,

thus

many of them have no idea of what working means.

For

this

reason, a

service program could teach

how to behave in the workplace and, at the same time, benefit the whole society.

Moreover

, it could be an opportunity to learn what really means to be part of a

, with its rights and duties.

Finally

Linking Words

, someone could get involved in social services, finding a passion in a sector that desperately needs volunteers. Given all

this

, it is not entirely inaccurate to say that

such

services should be compulsory in high schools.

On the other hand

Linking Words

, it should be clear that unpaid services provided by

students

cannot be seen as an occasion to save money for city councils or some companies.

For instance

, in some countries where similar approaches are used,

such

as Italy, where pupils have to work for at least 200 hours during their studies, there have been cases of exploitation.

This

could be avoided with stricter controls and with detailed reports of the activities in which the

student

takes part. In conclusion, I think that it is a great idea to make

participate in

service. As stated above,

this

could have advantages for all the involved sides and could be implemented pretty easily.

Nonetheless

, the process should be surveilled by the institutions to prevent the misuse of
