In some countries, secondary schools aim to provide a general education across a range of subjects. In others, children focus on a narrow range of subjects related to a particular career. Which of these two systems is more appropriate in today’s world

Nowadays, different schools have different curriculum criteria depending upon the demand of that particular city or region in which the school is located. Some cover a wide range of
subjects
while
 others, limit their curriculum to specific department-related
subjects
.
This
 essay will discuss two different sides of the secondary
education
 system
along with
 their positives and negatives.
To begin
 with, providing general
education
 regarding every
subject
 will not only open the mind of the
student
 in every aspect but will
also
 open the doors to different opportunities for him in future. Many students at an early age opt for the
subjects
 that they later find uninteresting.
Therefore
, if a
student
 has a basic knowledge of other fields
then
 it would be easy for him to switch the
subject
.
Moreover
,
education
, in a particular
subject
 will only provide vast knowledge related to that
subject
.
For example
, if a
student
 picks art and later on wants to change his field because of employment opportunities or simply because he was not able to secure a seat at his desired university, he won't be able to do that, because of his or her restricted understanding to that
subject
.
On the other hand
, some people are of the opinion that specific
subject
-related expertise will polish the pupils in a better way. It will make them experts in their
subjects
 which in turn would be beneficial for them in future. In my opinion, one should choose
this
 system only if he or she is sure about the career choice. In conclusion, schools providing particular career-related
education
 are doing a great job by transforming a common
student
 into an expert but in today’s world having general knowledge about
the
Correct article usage
a
show examples
 wide range of
subjects
 is more important as it would be able to shield the junior from future uncertainties.
